Hypothetically, if warehouses keep burning down, insurers could start treating low wages as a risk factor and refuse to cover sites that underpay staff, turning low pay into a direct liability.

@BillAckman I CAN imagine construction unions excited about this because the only thing that is going to change is that rich people will pay a little bit more in taxes. That’s it. No one’s prediction of a mass exodus of the rich has ever come true. NYC is awesome. Everyone wants to be here.

Non-residents who spend millions of dollars on NYC apartments help drive NYC’s economy. Most of the profit in condominium development is in the penthouses. The Ken Griffins of the world make NYC high end development viable, driving high-paying construction, brokerage, legal, marketing, and other jobs in NYC. We should be applauding Ken for spending $238 million in NYC, not attacking him for doing so. Importantly, non-resident owners of NYC apartments who leave their apartments vacant for much of the year are not a burden to NYC schools, services, or other resources while they drive growth in retail sales, restaurants, theater, and other important drivers of our economy. They also often support NYC non-profits with donations. Ken’s company is a major employer in NYC of very high paying jobs which drive a considerable amount of our tax base. We wouldn’t want him to move even more employees to Miami. These non-resident owners also already pay a lot of taxes including mansion taxes, real estate taxes, sales taxes and more. While @NYCMayor Mamdani likes the tag line ‘Tax the rich.’ Unfortunately, his policies will harm the constituencies he is supposedly trying to help. I can’t imagine the NYC construction unions are excited about his plan.
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@NYCMayor

Happy Tax Day, New York. We’re taxing the rich.

@SchmittNYC Someone who’s buying a $5.9 MILLION apartment in Manhattan as a pied-à-terre will be JUST FINE. And the city they get in exchange will be a better city than if they didn’t chip in a bit more.

Here’s a 5.9M condo in Manhattan. It’ll be bought by someone Mamdani/Hochul claim isn’t paying their “fair share”. They’ll pay a $132,000 mansion tax at closing. And then pay $5200 a month in property taxes. Mamdani and Hochul will now add another tax to this bill.

@TheSWPrincess So the thought is that Collins is too weak to maintain her seat, so the GOP have devised this plan to run Platner as Dem who will lie to the people of Maine and instantly stab them in the back rather than just back their own candidate who’s been serving for 29 years?

@wanderingcde He looks, acts and talks like a Republican "running as" a Democrat, which has happened a couple of times.

Graham Platner mixed up Ron Paul and Rand Paul, then practically glowed while dumping on Democrats. So why is he running in a Democratic primary instead of as an Independent? Because this doesn’t read like ideological disagreement. It reads like infiltration. And bragging that he wants the Epstein files released? That's the bare minimum, not a moral flex.

@neeratanden Deflecting with a bad faith dig isn’t productive. I’m of course referring to your “never Trumpers are nicer to Dems” tweet. My point, that you didn’t engage with, is that we have more in common than we don’t. We’re under siege & people are dying. Can we stop fighting eachother?

@JillFilipovic AI replaces jobs, causing unemployment. PE firms and Developers buy up affordable homes and turn them into rentals, adjust rent to maximum extraction causing homelessness. Insurance companies denying care for profit: Deaths. Corps may not “want” that, but they DO that.

It's true that Donald Trump's one trick is to blame every problem on immigrants. But I don't think it's a better trick to blame complex problems on nefarious corporations that apparently want you jobless, homeless, and dead. There are real problems with corporate power but "bad corporation took your nice thing away" is not actually the sole or even chief cause of most of these problems, and Democratic politicians should offer voters real solutions, of which there actually are many.

Abdul El-Sayed: “If you’re out of a job, it’s probably because a corporation figured out how to automate your job. If you’re out of a home, it’s probably because a corporation is speculating on the home that you should have been able to afford. If you’re out of healthcare, it’s probably because a corporation has figured out how to monetize you because you get sick”

@ProudSocialist Tactical frivolity has long been part of revolutionary and protest movements. The unseriousness undermines the fascist narrative that any opposition are violent anti-American traitors. Also, facing monstrous toxic masculinity with mockery undermines the fascist’s perceived power.

Dressing up like frogs and putting dildos on ICE facilities is not an effective way to stop fascism. If anything this unserious behavior waters down the very real & serious threat fascism poses to our society. We need a working class revolution, not frog costumes & pink dildos.

Hundreds of millions of people throughout the world are immersed in extreme poverty. Yet, disproportionate wealth remains in the hands of a few. It is an unjust scenario, in the face of which we cannot fail to question ourselves and commit to change things. There is no lack of resources at the root of disparities, but the need to address solvable problems related to a more equitable distribution of wealth, to be achieved with moral sense and honesty.
