| Albany will find a way to leech this out of NYC taxes Albany uses NYC to fund most of the state. NYC residents lose services and resources because of outlying areas with low residential/population density. Giving companies tax breaks in low/unpopulated areas just means the money being lost will get sucked out of downstate taxes, like it always is.
If people want to live in low-population areas, they should deal with the consequences of limited state supported services due to limited tax monies generated in those areas.
Granted, it'd be nice to drive from Manhattan to Canada and have uninterrupted wi-fi the entire trip, but the state runs our subway lines, and they can't even get wi-fi or cellular service running in the subways in the city where they collect the most taxes.
This plan will somehow screw NYC the way the majority of of New York State's initiatives always have. I like Spitzers record, but I don't see this historical trend changing.
And don't tell me it'll be 100% privatized when the State still has to cover expenses for managing the entire issue.
*bleh* |
| Dealing with the consequences for upstate NYers means paying an excessive burden into the states Medicaid coffers, of which downstate sees the lions share.
But I will stay that until those taxes go down for the entire state, the businesses will expand elsewhere, the cycle continues....the cycle continues...the cycle... |
