So kicking the can down the road and hoping pensioners die. Got it.
>socialism
Mamdani is literally just another post Reagan politician. Being a deficit hawk, and bragging about it as an achievement, is very typical of any Democrat politician who is trying to pivot to the "center" and portray himself as a "pragmatist" who is worthy of higher office.
Call it what you want, but that's not socialism.

Epstein's son is an amazing mayor.

He literally presented a budget which is effectively a spreadsheet showing how he plans to close the gap. It's a paper balance. The calc isn't based on future growth or similar it's based on assumptions and one off taxes. Kicking the can down the road.

been seeing this little kike get pushed all over insta in the last 2 weeks
>>
>>535138939
im more annoyed he didn't open gassing camps for kikes but his claim of balancing the budget is like you said just talk.
same with gassing kikes, all talk no action.
very disappointing.

and the state still needs to vote on the pension fuck off and state bailout so i wouldn't be surprised if they don't do it and this whole week of bragging is for naught.

>>535138881
If the deficit is zero what debt does he owe?
>>
>>535138182
Technically if New York state has an extra 12 billion in deficit it isn't NYC's though. I'm sure everyone else is tickled pink picking up the city's tab. This dude became mayor and literally hit everyone else in the state with the ol' "left my wallet in my other pants" routine

Your reply to>>535138526?
The FY 2027 Executive Budget presented by Mayor Zohran Mamdani represents one of the most significant departures from traditional municipal finance in the history of New York City. Facing a self-inflicted $12 billion deficit—driven by radical expansions in social spending and an ideological refusal to implement austerity—the administration has secured its balance sheet through two primary "accounting gimmicks": a massive $8 billion extraction from state taxpayers and a $2.3 billion "pension smoothing" maneuver that effectively raids the retirement security of municipal workers to fund current operations.The Anatomy of the $12 Billion GapBy early 2026, the Mamdani administration was forced to reconcile its campaign promises with the hard reality of a $12 billion shortfall. While the administration points to "structural gaps" and "underbudgeting" by the previous Adams administration, critics argue the deficit was fueled by the current Mayor’s refusal to scale back pandemic-era emergency programs and the rapid implementation of universal programs without recurring revenue streams.Rather than implementing a standard "Program to Eliminate the Gap" (PEG) to reduce city agency waste, the administration chose a "Robbing Peter to Pay Paul" strategy. This approach relies on two pillars: the $8 billion "State-City Accord" and the reamortization of pension liabilities.Pillar I: The $8 Billion State ExtractionThe centerpiece of the deficit-closure plan is a staggering $8 billion in support and authority granted by the New York State government. From a fiscal conservative perspective, this is not "aid" in the traditional sense, but a political bailout that shifts the burden of NYC’s fiscal mismanagement onto the broader New York State tax base.1. Direct Taxpayer Subsidies ($3.2 Billion)The state has committed over $3 billion in direct funds to cover costs that the city has failed to manage locally. T

>New York City taxpayers contribute more than half of the state's revenue, including 58.7% of New York State's income taxes. However, the city receives a smaller portion of state expenditures compared to what it contributes.
That was their money to begin with, now they’re just taking it back instead of giving it to rural leeches who don’t contribute
>>
>>535139198
It's a forecast. And running at a deficit and any actually debt owed are two different things.

>>535137620
They just lie and expect people to believe it.

So he has a 6 billion deficit? Or did he take more than the percentage he payed? Does NYC get nothing from the state? Seems like cope brochacho.

>>535138510
He should be banned from ever sucking cock again. That's worse torture for OP.

>>535139569
>NYC subsidizes the rest of the state and pays more than it receives for decades
Apparently not socialism and not bad according to you
>the situation flips around a little bit, now the rest of the state has to contribute back to the place they had been leeching from for decades
Awful, rampant socialism, theft.

Our choices are giving it away to the American people and illegals, or to Israel. If we're going to a debt death spiral, we might as well benefit from it.

Supposedly the $12 billion was exaggerated too.
We must let this play out though, let any failures be seen.

New York State exists to serve the City. It would be an irrelevant shithole like Ohio without it. The mayor is more important than the governor in NY.
>>
>>535138182
Shouldn’t state taxes be used to help people? NYC contributes $80bn a year. Why shouldn’t they be given $8bn to clear the deficit and make everyone’s lives better? Should that money have went to Israel instead?

>>535139968
>Should that money have went to Israel instead?
Unironically, their answer is yes.

>>535138939
Is that why Trump increased spending?

>>535137620
He followed the Republican game plan of reducing government spending and getting a bailout.
