Why would you expect "future growth" from something that's literally making negative dollars? If you take a step back it makes zero sense.

With their balanced budget and no social services cut?

What "balanced budget?" Mamdani got a massive bailout from the state of New York, and deferred pension payments.

It's classic third worldism, made possible by a low-information electorate that not only can't do the math, but lacks instinctual skepticism of the idea of a free lunch. Chicago went down the same path, and found that these gimmicks work until they don't.

It's pretty surprising considering all the bums they've elected over the previous few decades.

A mayor who balanced the city’s budget.
