BILL DE BLASIO CHEERS AS NEW YORK’S TAX BASE FLEES:
The exodus will tank city revenues, but de Blasio’s stuck on his old, old tune: “Help me tax the wealthy. Help me redistribute wealth,” he told WNYC’s Brian Lehrer last week.
De Blasio’s actually doing an excellent job of redistributing wealth: New Yorkers Flee for Florida and Texas as Mobility Surges.
Better get going fast on Glenn’s Welcome Wagon proposal, lest those fleeing New Yorkers bring with them the socialism that led to their electing Bane the mayor of Gotham City.
