The Castroist Playbook Comes to America
Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Socialists of America member who currently resides in Gracie Mansion as the mayor of New York, seems to be having a summer of love within the Democrat Party. In the Bronx, there is a city-owned grocery store about to open which pays no rent, and it will compete against bodegas which adhere to the rules of the real world (for how long before those private-sector operators are forced out of the market is a good question). He’s gleefully sending out letters to the owners of New York pied-a-terre housing units valued at $5 million or more, informing them that his new punitive tax on those properties which aren’t their owners’ primary residences is about to go into effect.
