So you pay more taxes than a billionaire does? Bullshit. Billionaires pay more in any of sales tax, payroll tax, RE tax, etc than you do.

And Bezos pays more in sales tax than all your taxes combined.
Wealthier people pay more taxes. NYC has a lot of rich people. Unless you're saying that shouldn't be the case and billionaires should get a flat tax that's not based on income?

I didn't attend my own father's funeral and we were on good terms. We had an agreement beforehand; any time/effort/money should be spent while he's alive, and none after.

I'm not distrusting Gothamist. Gothamist is saying these people were on the a list given anonymously. I believe that's true until otherwise proven.
However I have no clue whether the list itself is real or not. Nobody should have adverse effects due to being listed on an unconfirmed list.
If you were listed on a list of nazi members someone put out anonymously, does that make you a nazi?

Do you know if the member list was was real? There's a big difference between them actually joining a group vs their names being on a list given anonymously.

Not surprising.
I could have a list of "Secret Bad People Memberships" and leak it anonymously.
And it'll contain Biden's name. Does that mean Biden should lose his job?

Isn't "People's Choice" just a commercialized version of NYC Mesh?
Why pay when you can get mesh for free?
