Chapter 997 Anti-tax nude parade
It was still sunny in the morning, but suddenly it snowed in the afternoon, and the asphalt road on the ground fell a layer of white.
Mayor Rudy was preparing to pass a law in November to increase the personal income tax of New York residents by another 0.5% on the original basis.
This approach is understandable.
Because with the large-scale renovation of old cities in recent years and the excessive investment in urban infrastructure and medical benefits, the New York government's fiscal deficit in 1995.
There was no way to add taxes to the rich, so I had to put my mind on the middle class, so they could bully them.
It is approaching the end of the year, and Rudy wants to implement this policy quickly and plans to hold a discussion meeting today, but it has caused a large-scale demonstration.
According to long-term follow-up surveys by scientific institutions, it was found that in this city with a huge gap between the rich and the poor, people living in the poorest communities were less likely to live for about 11 years than those living on Wall Street and near the Upper East Side, which reflected the unequal living conditions of urban people.
The poor are having a hard time, and the middle class is under great pressure to live in the face of rising housing prices and inflation.
I heard that Mayor Rudy was going to take the money out of their pockets, and he suddenly became furious!
Just parade. Anyway, I have been used to it. If I don’t come to protest a few times a month, people will feel abnormal.
But today's parade is a little weird.
Sitting in the Starbucks Cafe, Han Xuan looked at the snowflakes falling from the sky, and then outside the glass window, the demonstrators with naked upper bodies.
I can't help but sigh that Westerners have good physiques and dare to run naked even at zero degrees, and are not afraid of catching a cold.
The breasts I saw in a few minutes were more than those added up in two lifetimes, including men, women, young and old, and occasionally there were beauties, with eight or nine hundred people.
Han Xuan's face was calm, but his eyes didn't stop for a moment and swept around.
The crowd was so scared that the drivers quickly parked the car on the side of the road.
They are in high spirits. If they meet someone, it may not be possible to solve the problem of losing money...
Just now, I came directly from the construction site to the Starbucks New York Main Store on Fifth Avenue, and across the street was Victoria's Secret Underwear Store.
Several female protesters stopped to go into the store and took a look, probably asking when the new underwear will be launched.
On Christmas Eve, Victoria's Secret released a new product just like last year and held a Victoria's Secret Angel Show.
The entire broadcast was broadcast live by ab TV, breaking the previous record of Han Xuan’s reality show in one fell swoop and achieving a super high rating of 53 million. Han Xuan also watched a short section that day.
After they entered the store, they left just a few words and went to chase away the distant team.
The way he ran scared the boys on the roadside silly, stared at them and exclaimed.
One of the seven or eight years old children couldn't even find out the hot dog in their hand.
Although nude demonstrations were not so frequent in the 1990s, they were also quite common in various places.
In 1992, New York passed a law that allowed women to appear on various occasions, just like men, without wearing clothes.
Han Xuan loved this law that focused on gender equality, but he still wanted to remind Anya and Isabelle that this is not a good thing and that it is harmful to the physical and mental health of boys, so that they must not learn from those people...
Mayor Rudy, who is being protested, appears quietly at this Starbucks cafe wearing a mask and hat.
After finding Han Xuan, he sat down opposite him, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I was almost discovered by those people and just happened to walk towards me.
Is there anything you want to ask me for?
I'm going to the town hall at five o'clock, and nothing happened in these two hours."
Han Xuan said in a polite tone, "Well, I haven't seen you for a long time. I happened to be in New York, so I asked you to come out and sit down.
And I need some help from some things, I hope it will not waste your precious time.
What do you want to drink? My secretary will help you buy it..."
“A cup of mocha coffee, thank you.
Please say that as long as I can help you, I will definitely help you.”
Rudy smiled and said, 1996 is coming, and he stepped down after two terms in 1997.
Many people asked him to be a consultant, but the old man offered the highest price, so he returned to his old business and served as the general counsel of the legal department of Sos Group, with an annual salary of more than two million US dollars.
They are all their own people, so the old man asked Han Xuan to find Rudy if he had something to do.
Han Xuan said at this moment: "My grandfather is worried that the nearby residents will be disturbed during the construction of the spiral building, and he wants to ask the city hall to cooperate to deal with possible conflicts.
In addition, I plan to re-select a piece of land in the downtown area and build Madison Garden Square, which is too old.
The design firm investigator told me that the building lifespan is about twenty years left.
The quality of the steel used at that time was not as good as it is now. Instead of spending so much money to renovate, it is better to rebuild one, which is a bit smaller in scale.
I want to transfer this land to Mr. Trump's company to develop several residential buildings or office buildings.
You know, it's in a very good location…”
There is another company now that wants to build a new comprehensive venue in New York. The positioning coincides with Madison Garden Plaza, which will inevitably affect the business of its own company. This is also the reason why Han Xuan made an appointment with Mayor Rudy.
Rudy had a little headache, but it wasn't impossible to deal with it. She nodded and agreed: "I will help you after the New Year."
You only need to submit the design drawings and application materials, and I will help you with the others.
As for changing the use of land... as long as Trump hires local workers, I have excuses to solve it.
Han, now I am worried that because of the resistance, the law to increase personal income tax cannot be passed. In this way, many projects will be stopped next year, and the two short-term bonds issued earlier are about to expire, and there is no way to pay them off.
Especially when rectifying the subway, it costs too much money. They want the best infrastructure, but are reluctant to pay taxes.
I really should have been my federal prosecutor at the beginning. Recently, my hair loss is getting worse and worse, and I am worried.
...Do you have a good idea?"
"Well, those people are probably worried that their income will decrease.
The income of the rich in New York has increased over the years, but the increase in the middle- and low-income groups is not large. This is mainly limited by the economic environment, and you are already doing great.
They are already uncomfortable, and when they hear that they want to increase taxes, they will inevitably become resistant. I suggest you set a time for this tax increase, for example, only two years will be charged.
Anyway, you have already left office by then, just hand over the mess to the next mayor.”
What Han Xuan said made Mayor Rudy’s eyes widen and murmured: “This idea…is great!”
I quickly stood up, put on my coat and prepared to leave: "Now I can't help but want to kiss you!
I'm really sorry, I'm going to arrange this matter. After the evening is over, I'll invite you to dinner. I believe they won't be too opposed this time!"
Secretary Dawson just walked over with Mocha, saw Rudy's back and asked in confusion: "Are you leaving?"
"Um.
You go and check me, who will participate in the New York mayoral election next year, and give me a list.
Rudy is about to retire, New York business is very important, we should find our own people again, otherwise some things will be troublesome..." (To be continued.)
