De Blasio, Cuomo On Collision Course Over Pre-k


debNew York Mayor Bill de Blasio’s relentless pursuit of a tax hike on wealthy New Yorkers to pay for universal pre-kindergarten has put him on a collision course with most powerful politician in the state.

His potential clash with Gov. Andrew Cuomo could set a forceful precedent for his administration.

The political intrigue was on display on several fronts Thursday.

In the nation’s capital, de Blasio insisted his proposed tax hike is the only way to guarantee funding for the plan.

His stance came just hours after Cuomo was quoted in The New York Times saying the mayor’s proposed tax hike was “political” and unnecessary.

The public statements and backroom negotiations will set up perhaps the most dramatic moment yet when de Blasio journeys to Albany on Monday to testify about his plan.

  1. de Blasio thinks he has the keys to everybody wallet. Rob from the rich to give to the poor. This does not work since
    at the end everybody except a hand fill are poor. He is killing the will to work to get ahead. People are sick of tax and spend. tax and spend. Give people control of their own life not having BIG BROTHER watching and controlling. Watch people will vote with their feet and leave. Companies will move down south to give a better quality of life.

  2. The only thing DeBlasio is interested in is soaking those with more money. He is a typical socialist commie chazer who turns people against each other, just like oblamo, while pretending they are not part of the problem or part of the group they are talking against.

    If you dont know it, DEBLASIO IS A MILLIONAIRE!!!!!! OBAMA IS A MULTI MULTI MILLIONAIRE!!!!!!!!!! If they want “rich” to fund thing why dont they write a check for it?????? Because they want YOU to lose YOUR money, not them!!!
