They already do pay "a little more" in taxes. What he means is that we will "ask" these people to pay a higher percentage of their earnings than other people. Because they obviously don't deserve to keep their own money, being greedy scumbags by virtue of having the arrogance to earn more money than the Mayor thinks is proper.

Was any of this in doubt. NYC is having a midlife crisis. After a couple of decades of being (somewhat) responsible, they've decided to leave their wife, quit their job, start banging the yoga instructor, and ride off in a new corvette.
In about six months, they will have wrecked the corvette, realized that the yoga instructor is both crazy and sleeping with four other old dudes in the class, and gotten a call from their divorce attorney explaining just how bad it's going to be. And that no, their wife won't take them back, and neither will their boss.
At least it will be fun to watch. You know, of watching the voluntary collapse of civilization is your thing.

It's all rhetoric. If you think the millionaires and billionaires managing hedge funds in NYC will pay one extra cent in taxes or have anything in their business lives change you're as far out as the mayor-elect. If you really want to see the filthy rich manhattanites shake in their boots, try to reform the tax code and impose a flat tax on all income and assets. These folks have an army of tax lawyers and accountants who somehow allow them to LEGALLY pay 15% on multi-million dollar income. Once you realize that these very wealthy people DO NOT pay these "fair share" taxes or become impacted by any of these leftist policies it all starts to make more sense. Who will be most impacted? The 99.99 % of the population absorbing the amnesty of the illegals with their municipal ID badges, hospitals, schools, and all those who serve their communities in such roles.

People with way too much time on their hands.....![[thinking]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/010.gif "Thinking [thinking]")
Going for a carriage ride in Central Park always struck me as a very New Yorky thing to do. I never got to do it and, by the looks of things, never will.

Agreed.... This is like the recent news about members of congress wanting the Redskins to change their name because they found it offensive.... IIRC the reply was something like "Don't they have more important things to work on?".....
Were people expecting something different?
