Jeff Bezos to Mamdani: ‘Villain strategy’ won’t work; Ken Griffin isn’t hurting New York

In a recent statement, Jeff Bezos took aim at New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's approach to a proposed tax initiative. He emphasized that demonizing individuals isn't a viable strategy for tackling systemic issues. While he endorses the concept of the pied-à-terre tax, he disapproves of Mamdani's focus on targeting businessman Ken Griffin. Bezos highlighted that the real challenge lies in government inefficiency rather than imposing higher taxes alone.
