| NY State Taxes The NY state tax attitude is why 3 of the last 4 companies that I have worked for have left NY state.
One company I worked for was bought by a private individual. He came here for 2 weeks and decided to get the hell out of NY because we had to pay a yearly fee or licence to have the company name on the building. Cannot remember if the fee went to the town or the county.
Doesn't orange county in california tax telecommuters? I remember when i telecommuted for a company that moved from NY to South Carolina I paid NYS taxes but the company had to pay some kind of payment, permit or licence or whatever for one employee who telecommuted from Orange county CA. |

As if 9/11 was not enough to drive quite a few big businesses out of New York, the two money-grubbing pigs (a.k.a. Pataki and Bloomberg) have raised taxes to make their decision about leaving NY a lot easier. On top of it all, they are killing small and medium-sized businesses with their BS tickets. I am about to start looking for some real estate to buy, and if Bloomberg wins this election, I'll be buying something in NJ and getting the hell out of NY ASAP (I already work in NJ).
And in case you've been wondering why the crime has gone down in NYC, it is because cops are too busy writing tickets for petty parking violations, and hence have a lot less arrests to report. Just because they aren't arresting as many criminals doesn't mean that they are not out there.
On a good note, I heard that Bloomberg just got a $2.5M ticket for putting his campaign posters on public property; supposedly he broke the law that he himself helped pass. WOOT!!!

For what? Advertising? This is the height of ludicrousness.
