Think you understand how expensive New York City is? Think again. Beyond rent and taxes, there's a hidden cost of doing business: regulators acting like mob bosses.
In this episode:

• Real stories of NY bureaucrats shaking down small businesses.
• Why city departments operate like Don Finucci in The Godfather.
• Fines for paperwork violations, office “fire hazards,” and made-up infractions—just to wet their beaks.
• How contractors in NYC now budget six figures in expected fines before they even break ground.

This isn’t just bad policy. It’s legalized extortion—and it’s driving people and businesses out of New York in droves.
