What do you think about what he said about the absolute suicide if he were to raise the corporate taxes that corporations would leave? I don't think that that would be the case. I think what we'd see is that By raising the top corporate tax on corporations that do business here...we'd find that this would raise the funding to make this city more affordable. which would also make it easier for those corporations to attract the top talent who right now, they're having a struggle to do so because of how expensive the city is.

CLAIM
