“If I were to sum up the mindset of New Yorkers who elected Zohran Mamdani as mayor of New York City, it would be We want something for nothing, and we want the rich to pay for it. Instead, they will get nothing for something, and they will pay for it with a degraded quality of life. Mamdani’s victory was paved with ingratitude for the blessings New Yorkers receive daily. The mindset demanding ‘something for nothing’ from society is not just a political phenomenon, but a profound lapse in economic understanding and moral character.” (11/10/25)
