The Democrat Socialists of New York are pleased with the legislature’s proposal for more sky-high taxes on the wealthy that will pass down to the middle class, but they are outraged over not getting fifty billion dollars.
The Democrat Socialists are to the left of the CPUSA.
The tax increases come despite a $100 billion avalanche of fresh federal aid to New York, including $12.6 billion directly to state government coffers.
NY state lawmakers have proposed a budget for the next fiscal year that reflects a 22.6 percent increase in spending (despite only 4% inflation so far). The new budget includes proposed expenses such as rent for “New Yorkers who do not have access to unemployment, federal stimulus funds and other assistance programs’’ — including illegal immigrants. To pay for it all, they want to raise $7 billion through tax increases.
We refuse to settle for scraps in this year’s budget. If you’re ready to fight for the FULL $50 billion New York deserves, head over to https://t.co/rcvhbLliEO to help us in these critical final weeks.

When people grow up with parents who give them everything without work or responsibility involves they create crazy Liberals who think everything they desire should be just given to them. You can never give a Liberal enough free stuff. Government should never be in the business of wealth redistribution, but that is what a Democracy also degrades to – some form of Communism.
No matter how much you give the left, it is never enough. No matter how much you pander to the left, it is never enough. To quote a famous American, “Just say NO.”
