Time for Liberals to Shrug?

I am not wrong. New York is one of the most business unfriendly states in the country. And yet you support taxing the rich into oblivion.

You are very clearly wrong. You think New York is unfriendly to businesses, yet New York is home to the 2nd most fortune 500 companies in the country. Second only to California. In fact, only 1 out of the top 11 states for fortune 500 companies is a consistently Republican state.

That's also true per-capita. DC, Connecticut, and Minnesota(all liberal states) are ranked 1, 2, and 3 in fortune 500 companies per capita.

Actually, no. Upstate is not doing well compared to the ****hole. NYC is a net drain on the rest of the state.

Ummm... if Upstate is not doing well, then NYC(the most liberal part of the state) would have to be doing phenomenally well in order to keep the state as a whole looking so good.

For the record, NYC needs to separate from the GOOD part of the state and merge with NJ or form it's own state. We can handle ourselves.
