Hochul Proposes Tax on N.Y.C. Second Homes That Are Worth $5 Million

We will be taxing the ultra-wealthy and global elites.

Bingo, at the end of the day Trump voters and the like felt like he was going to make a change that would be in their favor despite his history. If the Democrats don't offer these people anything you cannot expect them to go out of their way to vote for someone based on personality and hope alone

"Quick! Find the nearest trailer trash and use them as a prop!"

The worse part is that this is effective on poor whites, which is why we have MAGA

This is an admin that quite literally posts groyper memes. We were simply too easy on the Nazis. Stalin had the right idea to demilitarize them and keep them weak instead of bringing them on to lead in NATO..

The only way the Strait of Hormuz is going to open and prevent Western recession, is for the US to admit defeat and give Iran whatever the fuck they want. Period. The US started this war with an unprovoked sneak attack murdering a leader and his family, and followed up with war crime after war crime

We've isolated ourselves a long time ago. As soon as we backed our currency behind oil we put our economy in the hands of foreign entities that don't exactly like us. As well as the shift to an import economy

For 30 years we considered Japan as an infinite money glitch to buy debt until recently

You still don't understand the difference between our economy and their economy lmao. They don't care about the Petro dollar. They are apart of BRICS ffs lmao

You're looking at GDP which means nothing. You are not looking at, however, is their PPP which is far higher than any other nation. This is basic economics

Right? I think my sudden infatuation with China is mostly jealousy at this point lol. It's hard to watch improvement across the planet while being in a sinkhole here

“Americans Don’t Know How Capitalist China Is” Weijian Shan was born in China and had his life upended by the Cultural Revolution. Educated in the United States, he worked for the World Bank and J.P. Morgan and taught at the Wharton School. Today ...

Deng Xiaoping is the reason why China shifted away from the soviet Communist model, and Xi Jinping is the reason why they are transitioning into a socialist command economy

You don't know shit and have no substance to back your ignorance

Lmao, you're just saying words now.

There is not a single Communist nation, the closest is Cuba due to sanctions. China is a centrally planned capitalist economy in transition into a socialist economy

You have no idea what you talking about lmao

Xi Jinping's politics in command economy China has embarked on a new path in economic policy making, one that has huge implications for the Chinese people and for the world.

China is literally known for CENTRAL PLANNING you dimwit

I thought you were going to be annoying and say Russia is second

Can you read? My work paid for my transit fees. I paid for nothing and rode HIGH SPEED RAIL. I cannot do that here. I have no access to high speed rail, nor do I have a side walk to safely walk to a fucking bus stop. In Japan, I was living in the country-side of Kanto. No excuses

Face it. You're just racist lol

China's energy strategy pays off as Mideast war cramps supplies: analysts China's long-term strategy of diversifying energy sources and building stockpiles is helping it weather disruptions from the Iran war, although some sectors still face major snags, analysts say.

Banning the export of oil is not a flex. It's a command economy. They aren't affected by the closing of Hormuz, I don't know if you know this but no body is stopping their ships

Russia also relies on Chinese rare earth minerals. If China decided to go to war tomorrow, I can guarantee you they would be able to amass a far stronger military. You are thinking like an American when it comes to military strength

In many nations across the planet, public transit is subsidized for the people who ride it. Even my job in Japan covered my transit costs. You have no fucking clue how anything outside the US works

No? I'm sorry I have lived outside the US. In Japan it was cheaper to ride the train, however I also had the choice to drive anywhere I wanted. In the US, my street doesn't even have a sidewalk let alone a reliable source of public transportation, while the vehicle market grows less affordable

LMFAO what does this have to do with anything? Our ships literally flood themselves on a regular basis. You just want to hate China because you believe every piece of propaganda that is put in front of you

Tofu dreg is quite literally a problem that no longer exists in China since 2010 due to regulations of their construction industries. You are just repeating old propaganda while here in the US 40% of our homeless population has a job

How does weakening a globally used currency affect a command economy in transition into a socialist economy? Have you not heard of BRICS? Chinese exports aren't cheap due to it's reliance on American trade, they are cheap due to the non-reliance on profit margins. Your brain is bricked by Capitalism

China set to extend fuel export ban with small exemptions, sources say China is poised to extend its ban on refined fuel exports into April, five industry ​sources with knowledge of the matter said, though exemptions could be ‌applied to small volumes bound for countries...

LMFAO what? How are they in chaos? They literally stockpiled oil in Sept 25 while it was cheap. China runs on a command economy. This means they can close the export of any industry to protect the resources that they have. Like they did with oil

China is doing far better than any other nation rn

What is free about needing to own your own car? This made it so that the roof over your head and your means of getting to your destination falls solely to your ability to AFFORD IT.

Amazing system! Who needs affordable housing and easy access to multiple sources of transportation!

Holy fuck, you are so dense. You are describing the privatized housing sector's exploitation on the GI-Bill. Selling American vets the idea of the Nuclear Family. This worked hand in hand with exploiting Americans further with the idea of freedom through personal transportation by GM lobbies

No, gun violence IS in EVERY state. Period. Ultra violence is baked into our culture fundamentally. 17% of ALL MURDERS come from our police officers every year. We are exposed to our presidents and elected officials calling for the mass violence of marginalized people on a regular basis

Nuclear energy is great and is far more efficient for long term use, however not every nation is going to benefit from every form of energy. Build time and access to resources comes to mind

This is why solar and wind become dominate due to it's accessibility and cheapness due to Chinese ingenuity

Simply put, Americans decided Kamala wasn't able to give them something for their vote. Transactional voting is a fundamental point of any democracy. Considering you cannot tell her policy choices from someone like Nicky Haley should be enough to tell you where her focus was on. That and Palestine

If you deny this statement, then you are admitting that Trump won because he's a stronger candidate. Which is false, Trump won simply because of his faux-populist policy. He made an impression on our uneducated poor population that continues to grow every year. Mixed in with the lack of opposition

I need you all to ask yourselves why they lost. If your answer is because America is racist or sexist, continue to ask yourself why America is racist. This is what every voting age American needs to do

The fact is, weak Democratic leaders for decades led to Trump being the face of America
