ALEC’s study is just the latest to note New York’s grim economic prospects, with others, like the Tax Foundation, also citing the state’s lousy economic climate. Cuomo may not be shooting for last place, but, alas, he doesn’t seem to want to avoid it either

I, for one, will be voting with my feet in a couple years. Assuming the DummyRATS don't ruin the economy

Have democrats ever been able to run a successful economy?

 

[cgrutt]

Yeah, tell me about it.

Good going Andy... Along with the downstate Democrat politicians in general.

The NYC voters have spoken. This is what they want...
Nothing can be done to change that fact.

But when it comes right down to it... The way that I am living right now is no ones else's fault but my own. I can't change anything here in NY. But I can change what state I live in like some other NYGF members have...

There are things that hold me back... As in, moving away from family and friends and some other things. I don't want to leave what I have here. But the writing is on the wall. Things are just going to get worse and worse in my part of NYS.
It's time for me to buck up, and say my goodbyes, and do what I need to do.

Rebel against democrats, hang cuomo's corpse by his heels.

It hasn’t been the easiest thing to do,- closing my businesses, selling property, leaving friends and especially family (my children),- but it is the right thing to do.

I do not regret the move. From a business standpoint, I had no choice.

FUAC! NC is now my home. NOMOQOMO is my mantra and my license plate!

As much as I miss my family and friends I have no regrets either.

Why wait til it's a corpse? Then you lose half the fun.

I was drawing a specific parallel:

Agree 100%. In the past 5 years I have done a complete 180 in my thinking. Before I was reasonably certain I would retire in upstate NY. Now it's practically certain I will not. Leaving family and friends won't be easy but the govt, taxes, gun laws and weather have all combined to push me away.

I didn't mention the BS NY gun laws, but they were also a big factor. That, - and when the asshole Princess said that there was no place in NY for conservatives. He's got his wish, I'm gone. And I'll tell you something else,- NC is booming daily, - and a hell of a lot of the people moving here every day are ex NY'ers.

NY DMV emailed me several times recently telling me that my NY drivers license to that I needed to renew it immediately! Um, no...

There's a cancer in some of them. Remain vigilant.
