Taxing the rich in New York, as Zohran Mamdani has proposed, isn’t just right and necessary. New polling shows a strong majority support making the wealthy pay, suggesting that Gov. Kathy Hochul’s refusal to do so is political malpractice.

      As a vegan, I am fervently opposed to eating billionaire meat. Why feed a few dozen people meat when you can shred and compost their flesh as fertilizer and feed thousands?

        If we lashed them to the yoke, we could plow the fields for decades.

          We’d still have to feed them though, instead of giving decent people a job for a living wage.

        Also, depending part of the billionaire you get and how its prepared, if you experience an erection lasting longer than four hours, seek immediate medical attention. Prolonged erections can lead to serious complications, including permanent damage. Do not ignore this warning, your health is paramount. Talk to your if your butcher about your options today.
