The state gave the city around 8 billion.

So, you're telling me, that people's taxes are being used to pay for services that benefit them in addition to billionaires being taxed?

Inject that shit into my veins. People's taxes being used to fund their services is how this shit is supposed to work.

Some of it is that. Most of it is the state granting the city exemptions to state regulations that would have cost the city billions to comply with. So not money changing hands.

Correct. Now, why would you downvote me for saying that?
