Do these morons not know that they are destroying this city, or do they know what’s going to happen and don’t care.

This is not from “The Onion”, this is from the Telegraph article

quote:

Under the new rate, which is expected to soon be rubber-stamped by Governor Andrew Cuomo, the city’s top earners could pay up to 14.8 per cent tax - a combined federal, state, and city tax which could reach 52 per cent.


quote:

“Bell Tolls for NYC: Quality of life plummets, taxes rocket - and city faces uncertain future”, read the headline on the front page of the New York Post tabloid on Wednesday.


quote:

Much of Wall Street has become a ghost town, while restaurants and high-end shops in Midtown Manhattan that closed with lockdown are still boarded up and unlikely to return.

Mess a city up. Expect the people who abide to pay for the mess up.

On Tuesday, the wife and I are venturing into the city for the first time in over a year. Going to Midtown and then into Brooklyn for lunch. I'm interested in seeing what it's really like nowadays.

The paranoid part of me thinks that this is part of their master plan to turn the Deep South blue. They want to drive liberal citizens into more conservative areas so they can change the politics of said conservative areas.

They don't care. They and their pals in Washington will just keep stealing elections and passing "stimulus" bills to bail them out.

They probably know and want to do it so they can force all the indoctrinated crazy liberals out to the different freedom loving states in order to corrupt and bring the conservative areas of texas florida montana idaho Dakota's into the fold. It's really sad and sucks and pisses me off that people choose to leave a shite hole and bring the policies that ruin their home to a new place ????

I like those kind of places. I’m in Bryson City and we sometimes get a leftist halfback that thinks they’re going to change us. We’ve got one right now that is demanding gender neutral bathrooms for her tranny kid

Half for "The Big Guy", lol.

The people leaving should have the morals to stay there and pay for the shite policies they voted into office.

They're not welcome here.

The wealthiest 1 percent pay like 45 percent of the income tax collected in NYC.

And they are increasing the amount they are taxed.

Because they need to make sure the wealthiest 1 percent pay their share.

Jesus, how much more is their share?

So as the tax base of NYC and new York continues to decline they can either increase the tax on the one percent even more driving more out, they could spread the burden to more people so they understand the amount of money the city spends, or they can cut spending.

Democrats going to Democrat, so they are going to increase spending to make things equitable and also they are going to increase the amount the 1 percent pays.

That will be a double whammy.

The city is going to decline to levels not seen since the 70s.

Liberal rules baby.

Cool place. Been to MINIs on the Dragon a bunch. Used to buzz into Bryson for lunch and beers at Nantahala and ice cream at Soda Pop's.
