An article from a couple months ago. I guess I missed it back then.
In case you wondered what the principal target of the socialists is... you're it. Or more precisely, your money, your assets, whatever you might have saved to help your family, your prosperity etc.
Bill DeBlasio believes he knows better what to spend it on, than you do. And he's happy to use the power of government to take it from you, and spend it. Whether you like it or not.
BTW, the author got the Robin Hood part wrong.
The condensed version claims Robin Hood "stole from the rich and gave to the poor".
But do you know who he really "stole" from? Check out the various Robin Hood legends, not just a five-second sound byte.
Robin Hood took money from
government tax collectors and treasury agents. And who did he give it to? The people the govt had taken it from in the first place. Farmers, cobblers, homebuilders, housewives etc. The people who actually worked to earn it.
Robin Hood was a conservative.

De Blasio: There’s plenty of money in NYC — it’s just in the wrong hands

He’s Mayor Robin Hood.
Burnishing his progressive credentials, Mayor Bill de Blasio portrayed himself as a protector of the working class on Thursday — while proposing a redistribution of wealth — in his sixth State of the City address.
“Brothers and sisters, there’s plenty of money in the world. There’s plenty of money in this city. It’s just in the wrong hands,” said de Blasio, who owns two homes and collects $258,750 a year as mayor.
