Published | Video Starts at 08:58

So we don't need the money outside of our revenues. And you know, for the record, you know, we've already had a tax increase on wealthy people when I extended what was supposed to be an expiration of a tax increase on the wealthy just last year. So I extended that I think till 2032. So the wealthy are paying higher taxes in New York now, and we're going to continue benefiting from those revenues. You know, you're going to get this question a lot right. (08:58–09:16)
