Smart fricking mayor, Rich people don't pay that tax. They buy and sell property. People buying up their new York real estate are fixing to eat.

I was going to mention that ibm one in endicott, but I believe Lockheed Martin is still there. My brother used to work there. I think they mostly do simulators there. It’s not a massive plant or anything


IBM back in the day had a ton of employees. My uncle worked there for years.

The winters up there are the most depressing months. The sun rarely shows it’s face and all the dirt and salt spreads everywhere when it’s snowing. Very grey and dirty.


Lol. Yeah, winters can be challenging. Spring, summer and fall up there are gorgeous, though. The problem is winter can be anywhere from three to eight months.

Stupid democrats


You can say that again....the TAX the hand that feeds them.

I am pretty certain most of the rich NYers are DEMS....so this does not make any political sense!

I quit trying to figure out Democratic logic, because there is none!

My family used to live on the side hills of Keuka lake (mom still does) where all the wineries are. Not far from Heron Hill. It’s a beautiful place. I go back there for Thanksgiving and Xmas. It’s a great breather from the fast paced area I am now, so I still love going there from time to time.

My relatives still have a farmstead on a hill overlooking Skaneateles Lake.

I understand. Could be the cold weather. I always hear those stereotypes about people in the north- the brutal winters drive a lot to alcoholism.

For the record, after more than 30 years in Florida and my entire life in the south, I am thinking about moving to a cold weather area for retirement. I've gotten to the point where I can't stand crowds, and FL is getting too crowded.

. It's still one of the prettiest and poorest places you could ever live.


I may counter that with:

Have you ever been to West Virginia or East Ky? Talk about pretty area but holy shite they are poor. Like on par with MS Delta.

Don't do it, the cold only gets harder as you get older. Move somewhere less crowded or split time between climates. There's no way in hell I'd be 60 putting on a Canada Goose to go snow shovel the driveway.

You may have me there. Mountain poor is a different kind of poor.
