Congratulations on the win, but your plans to raise corporate taxes and implement a wealth tax could drive businesses out of NYC, exacerbating the very affordability issues you aim to solve. Hope you reconsider these policies for the sake of the city's economic health.

Zohran Mamdani — who talks about roti, kapda aur makaan (food, clothing, and shelter) — has just been elected Mayor of the world’s richest city, New York.
In India, talking about roti, kapda, makaan, and jobs is treated as an act of rebellion by the media.
While the richest city in the world chooses love and people’s issues over hate, voters in Bihar should take a moment to learn more about Zohran Mamdani before casting their votes on the 6th and 11th.

As a Ugandan, I’m proud of you, Zohran.
Your victory isn’t just political — it’s historical.
You carry the spirit of a continent that refuses to be silenced.
Let the racists and cynics rage — excellence is the best revenge.
Lead boldly, brother.
Africa is watching with pride.

You fought with heart, courage & conviction. You stood up against billionaires & against the status quo.
A moment of pride, a triumph of justice, and a reminder that when hope rises, even the mightiest walls fall.

“Together we made history.”
Sure, but history also teaches us something very simple:
Socialism has never produced long term freedom, prosperity, or stability anywhere it has been attempted.
From the Soviet Union to Venezuela (where I was born and experienced myself), from Eastern Europe to Cuba, every time the State tries to centrally engineer society, it ends in:
• economic collapse
• shortages
• corruption
• loss of individual liberty
And before someone says “China,” let’s be honest
China’s economic rise happened only after abandoning Maoist socialism and adopting market reforms, private enterprise, foreign investment, and capitalist incentives.
What remains socialist in China is not prosperity it’s the censorship, repression, and lack of freedom.
No one should want that imported into New York City.
Strong cities are built on:
innovation
entrepreneurship
private initiative
rule of law
reward for effort & ambition
Socialism sounds compassionate until you run out of other people’s money, and then comes reality.
New York deserves better than ideological experiments.

Zohran Mamdani’s win is a breath of fresh air for New York. Here’s hoping he governs the same way he campaigned — with courage and zero loyalty to big money or special interests.
He proved you can win without selling out to special interests.
Now it’s time to prove you can govern that way too — with independence and integrity.

He didn’t win he summoned the city.
Every block turned choir, every vote spit gritty.
Zohran made New York sound like victory.

At just 34, Zohran Mamdani has shattered ceilings: NYC’s first Muslim mayor, youngest in over a century, elected on a bold platform for housing, transit & social justice. Big city, big stakes — the world’s watching.

The Downfall of New York City
The promises sound shiny. Government stores. Government housing. Free buses. Free childcare. But beneath these made-for-Internet slogans, New York is being led toward the same failed experiments that have collapsed cities and economies throughout history.
Government Stores
Mandimi’s plan for “public retail” is being sold as an equity initiative. The idea is that the city will open government-run grocery stores to compete with private businesses that supposedly “overcharge” residents. But this model has been tested before—Caracas, Havana, Moscow, even small pilots in the U.S.—and it never works.
Private bodegas operate on razor-thin margins of one to three percent. They survive through efficiency, loyalty, and hustle. A government store doesn’t need to compete or profit—it just needs funding. When it fails, taxpayers refill the till. Eventually, private shops can’t match subsidized prices and close their doors. The entrepreneurs who spent decades serving their neighborhoods are replaced by bureaucrats with no incentive to care.
The end result: no competition, no innovation, no service. Just sterile shelves and a waiting line.
Government Housing
Mandimi calls it “affordable housing for all.” History calls it something else: slums. Every nation that’s tried mass government housing has seen the same pattern—low quality, poor maintenance, unsafe environments, and despair.
Rent control, another part of the plan, sounds compassionate but kills housing supply. When landlords can’t charge market rates, they stop improving their properties because they’ll never recover the costs. Amenities vanish, repairs are delayed, and buildings decay. Eventually, the city steps in, buys the properties for pennies, and turns them into more public housing—permanently trapping residents in government dependence.
In Soviet Russia, those gray concrete towers were hailed as progress. Within years, they became monuments to neglect.
Free Buses
There is no such thing as “free.” Someone always pays. Eliminating fares shifts the cost from the rider to the taxpayer. The expense doesn’t disappear—it just hides in the budget.
If affordability is the issue, the answer isn’t to make buses free—it’s to make people prosperous enough that they can afford their own transportation. Free rides don’t create opportunity. Jobs and wages do.
Free Childcare
New York already faces a severe shortage of childcare workers. Adding “free childcare” just drives more demand into a system with no supply. The burden shifts to taxpayers—including those who chose not to have children.
Having a child is a personal decision. The responsibility is private, not public. Turning parenthood into a collective expense is redistribution disguised as compassion.
The Pattern Repeats
Mandimi’s platform continues with the same recycled ideas—expanded subsidies, new agencies, public jobs programs, “guaranteed income.” Each one sounds generous, but every dollar comes from someone else’s pocket. Each new promise creates a new dependency, a new bureaucracy, and a new layer of inefficiency.
New York City was built by entrepreneurs, artists, immigrants, and dreamers—not by planners with clipboards. Every time government expands, independence shrinks. Every “free” program carries an invisible tax. Every intervention erodes the competition that keeps cities alive.
Our Sad Closing Thoughts
Feeling good about voting for someone different doesn’t make their ideas new. Mandimi’s platform is a repetition of ideas that have failed every single time. These are recycled policies from failed systems around the world, dressed up in modern slogans.
The downfall of New York City won’t come from a lack of compassion. It will come from confusing control with care, equity with ownership, and governance with growth. History has already written this story. We just seem determined to repeat it.

Your focus on progressive policies might alienate moderate voters and businesses, potentially leading to a divided city. Let's hope you can find a balanced approach that doesn't alienate key stakeholders.

So now Mamdani is trying to get rich off of duping his supporters into supporting his socialism that will never happen because Hochul will never fund it.
She’s already said she won’t raise taxes on the rich.
Mamdani is a complete fraud.

All I know is they are trying to make smart cities and NYC is about to become one. Mamdani is going to lead that agenda. The fight is beyond a mayors race. It will be coming to a city or town near you because you dont see the play. All those data centers and yall still think believing the okie doke
