NYC Socialist Mamdani Calls for Shifting Heavier Tax Burden to 'Whiter Neighborhoods'
The Western Journal ^ | June 27, 2025 | Nick Givas

Democratic Socialist Zorhan Mamdani, mayoral candidate for New York City, has already begun laying out his vision if he were to win, wanting to shift tax burdens over to “whiter neighborhoods.”

The idea of doling out more taxes to white people came in the form of a homeowner policy memo, outlining Mamdani’s plans on housing.

“Shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods,” one bullet point read. “The property tax system is unbalanced because assessment levels are artificially capped, so homeowners in expensive neighborhoods pay less than their fair share.

“The Mayor can fix this by pushing class assessment percentages down for everyone and adjusting rates up, effectively lowering tax payments for homeowners in neighborhoods like Jamaica and Brownsville while raising the amount paid in the most expensive Brooklyn brownstones,” the paragraph concluded.

This would likely be challenged in court, with plaintiffs citing the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment in the Constitution.

This sort of proposal basically promises to punish people with punitive taxes simply because they’re white.

It’s racially biased and hypocritical, especially for a Democrat, to offer up policies that are blatantly discriminatory.

Here's the document in question:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iGn9ws9Ds0x_3kkB1tdM2pxLlbkPtT0k/view

Its letterhead says "Zohran for New York City" and on page 4 it states:

"Shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods"

I guess he’s never heard of the equal protection clause in the Constitution. No surprise.

It will be interesting to see if the white sheeple stick around to get fleeced.

Like that Boston chick Chinee mayor (Wu?) who gave a Christmas party, taxpayer funded: ‘No white people’.
It is only racism if their ox is getting gored.

(NYC Socialist Mamdani Calls for Shifting Heavier Tax Burden to 'Whiter Neighborhoods')

Typical Leftist Racist Troublemaker.

Try to sow confusion, destruction and Animosity in America.

Just like Democrat Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama.

Look at Barack Hussein Obama as a Muslim Foreign Agent seeking to destroy America from within and then everything he did, didn't do, dragged his feet ALL makes sense

DEMOCRAT MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE
BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

Hope and Change (THANKS, SUCKERS!!)

ALL ACCORDING TO PLAN


ALL ACCORDING TO SATAN'S PLAN

Back to dividing people by race. He should remember, there are quite a few Muslims who are very wealthy, and have no intention of giving all their earnings away to please some naive Socialist-Jihadist.

“You can vote your way into Socialism but you have to shoot you way out.” I’m starting to smell the smoke of a Civil War.

Just wait for the special tax on all of the non-Muslims. That one is always popular.

“Shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods,”

Stupid. Even if he did what he wanted, he wouldn't get what he wanted.

Plenty of whites in the outer boroughs. Staten Island, the outest borough, is also the whitest borough.

And Manhattan is full of rich foreigners who buy part-time second homes in NYC. Many from Europe and Israel, but also many from Muslim and colored nations, e.g., Saudis, Gulf states, Indians, Japanese, Chinese, etc. Lots of rich foreigners of color in Manhattan.

I always love to hear a democrat talk about paying a fair share. The original constitution had no income or property taxes. That is my fair share.

Many moons ago, El RushBo pointed out a democRAT mayor who found out that Rush left NY due to the high taxes. The idiot mayor said something close to: “if I’d have known it would make Rush leave, I would have raised the taxes sooner.

Several Mayors later, the new mayor openly stated that the rich are paying most of the taxes. If we keep chasing them out of NY, there will not be enough $$$.
