Coronavirus

Sure I have expressed my opinion, every November as well, but without getting into politics (verboten) this is a one party state now and "tax and spend" its all its going to be. Those that can will flee for a free state.

Same here. Goes nowhere.

Too bad NY can't figure out a way to get it's hands on all that federal money. You know, like having businesses here that the Feds would buy from, or not taxing their retirees out of the state so all those pensions and SS money would stay here. What a shame that it's such a mystery. :rolleyes:

At 57 I don’t know one person in my circle that plans on retiring in ny state
Most say they simply can’t afford to and the rest simply don’t want to pay the vig to stay

with this nonsense now there’s a new dynamic
I can’t afford too
Don want too

If municipal, state, federal and military pensions were taxed by Newyorkistan, I would have been out of here when I quit working for Obummer in 2011. The ONLY reason why many firemen and cops stay here is because of that. Start taxing them now ? I can hear the theme song of "Exodus" ...

That’s why the go to fla and some other non tax or reciprocal states

Good thing we cant talk politics LOL 8-)8-)

On a different note

I gotta give mom and dad props for having the gumption
At 80 years old
To pick up and go out for diner tonight with a couple friends
For their Anniversary

for better or worse they aren’t hiding under the bed

mom got her nails done yesterday and out on the town tonight

granted they are 80 and dinner out starts at 5pm
And they couple they are going with have been in their sequester group
But outs out

Life’s politics
Has been for well over a decade
Even when it’s not spoken it oozes out of us all
It’s baked into the cake

I guess put me in with the "rest".
I will most like be able to afford retirement in NY, but cannot tolerate what you have to pay for ZERO services. South I will go! Better services, at a 70% discount! I will have worked too hard to give money to a black hole!

I don’t eat out much in ny anymore longcast
The quality of the local food and service leaves me cold

and going into manhattan is a chore

I dine out much more when I’m in Florida

Th

Happy Anniversary to them!

thank you

I feel your pain regarding our NY taxes.
I take it you you make sure you express your opinions to the current leader of the Senate to make sure he knows as a NY'er how upset you are that we have major issues because our NY dollars are subsidizing his state? If we got back our federal dollars the state would be in much better shape regardless of who is in charge of our state

no - they'd just piss it away on other things.......

Dr.Faici was telling da senate today da updated status. Can’t imagine It was any difference from what he was saying da last 3 months... cellie...

That’s all it’s ever been about
And now some ppl want to hide until it’s over

and that’s not going to work and it’s not going to happen
on a mass scale

you want to wait till it’s over , wait

life’s worth livings not safe
Never was

you want safe ,grab a binkey and your Blankie
Climb into bed with your bottle

the rest of us want to live life not just survive it
