Of course this has nothing to do with NY being one of the states with the highest levels of State "Entitlement" programs around. The pols have to find a way to pay for all those "Bread and Circuses" so they can keep getting re-elected.  -- "Gun Control: The notion that Matthew Shepard tied to a fence post in the middle of Wyoming is morally superior to Matthew Shepard explaining to the local sheriff how his attackers got all those fatal bullet holes." ~Dan Weiner |

I think New York having the second largest economy in the United States and the tenth largest in the world (larger than most countries!) may have a bit more to do with it than any entitlement programs (which, if they had their taxation codes in order they could easily afford without nickle and diming anyone). This has a sense to do with "et eh buddy, if you are going to make NYC wages, you are going to pay NYC taxes like everyone else who makes NYC wages." |
