Allies of Mayor Johnson, 47, have also announced plans to push a $12-billion plan for the city titled ‘First We Get the Money’.

The plan, seemingly named after a quote from the 1983 film Scarface, aims to build a ‘more just’ Chicago by slashing funding for the police and implementing new taxes in the city.

Johnson believes people that own properties worth $1 million in the third-largest city in the U.S. are ‘rich, and should pay if they sell those homes’.

The plan, named ‘Bring Chicago Home’ is a compromise from his previous plan that would have seen the transfer-tax rate triple from 0.75 percent to 2.65 percent.

According to the National Review, Johnson is now proposing a three-tier progressive-transfer rate.

This means that sales below $1 million would see the tax cut from 0.75 percent to 06. percent, while property owners who sell their homes for between $1 million and $1.5 million would see tax rates rise from 0.75 percent to 2 percent.

Property sales of $1.5 million and above would see their tax rate quadrupled to three percent of the transfer amount.
