Part 8/11:
There is a pointed critique of the mayor’s personal background, as he reportedly comes from a wealthy family himself. The question is posed: if his goal is to fund social programs through charitable contributions or increased taxes on the wealthy, why doesn’t he personally finance his administration’s initiatives? The critique lampoons the idea of asking others to give more while personally benefiting from the existing wealth—highlighting a perceived hypocrisy.
Furthermore, the commentary dismisses the idea that taxing the wealthy will solve city problems, arguing instead for personal responsibility and economic freedom. The idea that "socialism" is a solution is considered dangerous, equated with historically negative outcomes in countries like Cuba and Venezuela.
