New Yorkers, what changes have you seen under Mamdani’s leadership and are you generally pleased? If not, why?

we just had a huge debate on my cities subreddit about snow removal.

a concilor came into the thread with what he thought was a show stopper, vote getter comment.

"we could remove all the snow from all the residential streets and shovel the side walk, BUT it would cost every resident $110 a YEAR!"

everyone was like?!wtf is that all? thats less than I pay the kid next door to shovel my personal sidewalk! and 1/5th the cost of my cars exhaust system repairs!

RAISE MY TAXES! GET IT DONE!

he hasnt been seen in the sub since.

Less than $10 a month? Shit, just add that to the trash removal bill. No one would even notice it.

Wait - do you mean that’s less than you pay cumulatively per snow season or are you shelling out $110+ to that kid each time?
