☭DEMOCRAT DE BLASIO WANTS TO REDISTRIBUTE WEALTH☭
Mayor Bill de Blasio used his sixth State of the City speech to present his promises of things to come.
The hourlong address followed a vow by the mayor that he would embark on a national tour to “preach the gospel” of liberal governance, trumpet his accomplishments in his first five years in office and argue that his new proposals — such as requiring paid vacation for most private-sector employees — are a model for the
DEMOCRAT Party nationally.
DEMOCRAT de Blasio railed against big business, promised to seize the buildings of landlords and framed the argument over income inequality — long a theme of his rhetoric — in zero-sum terms.
“Here’s the truth, brothers and sisters, there’s plenty of money in the world. Plenty of money in this city,” the mayor said. “It’s just in the wrong hands!”
