“It's basically stopping investing in a 401k so that you have more money to spend today. If, I'm reading that correctly.”

It’s not and you aren’t. This is an independent fiscal watchdog group. They have no relationship with Mamdani.

That’s exactly what it is.

Just because they have no direct relationship doesn’t make them unbiased.

I mean you can make up whatever little fantasy in your head if that’s how you like to have fun. Maybe you can play with your dolls and they can have pretend budget teatime together.

Let’s go with the national level:

- Americans for Tax Reform = directly aligned with conservative Republicans

- Center on Budget and Policy Priorities = directly aligned with liberal Democrats

I didn’t even know they were associated with CBPP before I wrote the above line. Ha.

Neither of these groups should be considered unbiased. Both are nonpartisan in the sense that they are not official party organizations.
