  • Then genocidal Americans historical figures: its complicated

    That’s the weird thing, during his first term there were a lot of comparisons to Andrew Jackson floating around. This time around, not so much. I think this signals that libs are doubling down on glazing historical American figures, no matter how bloodthirsty they were.






  • So the root issue here is that the NYC property tax law is written such that there’s a cap to how much property taxes can go up in a given year. Which, historically, made sense as a protection from shock tax hikes. The problem is that gentrification has meant certain neighborhoods’ homes have gone up dramatically in market value, but the property taxes are still lagging. This creates an invective to jack up property taxes in lower income neighborhoods that haven’t gentrified nor seen massive market value increases in order to make up the difference.
