Obviously, it’s good for Zohran Mamdani so he’ll turn NYC into his fiefdom.

“”””Welfare never goes broke. Odd. “”””

I can’t count how many times I heard that Social Security is soon to go broke. Never a word about the hundreds of billions of dollars the deadbeats get.

Broke?

Actually, Huge Cities and STATES can go Bankrupt.

There is only 1 kind of good Communist.

865K is just NYC. Doesn’t necessarily even count any state, federal, corporate or charity bennies they are getting.

The mayor and his merry bandits are looting the city.

Escape from New York is the bumper sticker of the middle class.

The other 49 states fund this. Look at how Covid funds were corrupted — $$ went to every blue states’ general fund; where they were spent on pet projects (after being skimmed by politicos).

Every Fed $$ that NY gets goes into the pockets of NYC.

865,000? “Hold my beer”. It’ll be a couple million in no time at all.

I have often wondered how S.S. could be going broke, but not welfare. Welfare may not go broke, but maybe it will break communism in NYC.

Under real Communism, there is no welfare.

The Soviet Union had “Anti-Parasite” laws where people found not working were arrested, or assigned a job (and it wasn’t the kind of job you would have wanted to do).
