Most social services are statewide, not specific to NYC. Even if NYC became separated from the state, do you think anybody is just going to be able to kick the white trash and other moochers out of upstate?
Hochul is begging wealthy people who have moved to FL and TX to come back to New York and pay taxes.

I remember back in the 1980’s when the upstate newspapers at that time including those in Buffalo, Rochester, and Syracuse did a weeklong series about how NYS was coming hard after people who moved away from NYS.
One in particular sticks in my memory. It was a man who had founded a foundry in Syracuse (Oberdorfer IIRC). He sold it and retired to FL,- and the NYS Tax Dept. vultures came after him hot and heavy- and they then ruled he was still an NYS resident, and stuck it to him! One of the criteria NYS used was that even after he retired and moved to FL,- he continued to make charitable contributions to the same people and organizations he did when he lived in NYS.
So NYS stuck it to him. He said fine,- that’s how you want to be? Fuck you NYS! And he stopped making charitable contributions to anyone or any organizations in NYS.
I got out in 2018,- and had to pay an exit tax to Erie County when I sold my home and left NYS.
Fuck NYS! It is a joy watching the state, their various government authorities, and NYC implode from down here in South Carolina (aka Free America).

Everyone is forgetting who Hochuls chief mentor was. This accept my tax policy or you have no place in NY is only a repeat of Coumo.

Gutfeld: She is PISSED!
Her handlers probably TOLD HER to get busy getting people (donors) back and cutting checks or she'd be the first one they'd cut off.
I'm surprised there isn't an "Exit Tax" like California...then again, Session isn't over.

That's what I mean. NYC drives the government, and makes us have social services at a level we wouldn't have if we ruled ourselves.
We wouldn't need to. They'd self-deport once we stopped the free shit gravy train. Likely to NYC.

State legislature faces tough decisions on climate law as costs loom for New Yorkers
A budget battle is brewing in Albany over the state’s impending climate law, the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA), and whether the state can afford to move forward with it in the timeline that’s been laid out. Governor Kathy Hochul has expressed concerns about the financial impact on New Yorkers.

I thought she wanted to reduce housing prices. Won’t bringing tons of rich people back to NYS increase prices?

Of course it's a pipe dream. NYC will never release their stranglehold on upstate.
If we put that aside and assume we did somehow separate NY into two states, however, I wouldn't consider it a pipe dream. Our votes would actually count, and we could elect representatives who actually represented our interests.

NY has entered the beginning of the 3rd phase of socialism where they are running out of other people’s money.

Kathy Hochul is quite possibly the dumbest retard known to exist. We're talking weapons grade stupidity. How the fuck did she ever get out of 1st grade ?
What's even scarier, there are people that voted for her and truly believe she's doing a great job.

The NY progressive Democrats are killing this state.
They're chasing everybody away except for New York's FSA and the illegal turd worlders FSA.

They'll rape the billionaires, then the millionaires, then the upper middle class. Sooner or later they'll raid the state pension funds. Change laws as needed to make their plans legal. The shitshow is just beginning.
The billionaires and millionaires will be fine. They'll be out of here before the ink is wet.
The middle class will take a little longer, but even they will eventually see the light.
The dems will end up having to tax the welfare recipients to try to get a few bucks. Kind of like a crack-whore turning a trick to get one last high.

The thing about moochers is that you don't *have* to kick them out.
If you cut them off they will leave on their own.
The state pension fund is covered by the state constitution. They cant touch it unless they open it to amendments.

I'm wondering, due to Hochul's begging, how many wealthy people are planning on returning to New York to their own detriment. So Hochul will have the funds needed to supply New York's FSA.
I know how many. She can roll the number home.
100% this. Moochers go where the "free shit" is. No "free shit" = the moochers leave.
Since when has a pesky little constitution ever stopped a NY politician? Power begets power, always has.

It's like having ants. You'll never get rid of them if there's food out no matter how many you kill or how much poison you spread.
But clean up the mess so there's no food and they'll just magically disappear.
