Good news for the Oneida. The U.S. Supreme Court said they have a right to "buy back" stuff New York state gave to illegal aliens in violation of US law.

I would suppose they'll take any major bridge.

When NY people retire, many of them — even high salaried executives — are forced to sell their homes and leave the state; thanks to property taxes they can no longer afford to pay.

The most frightening thing is how America is selling important businesses, buildings, etc, to foreign countries.

The Trans Texas Corridor - toll road, that Governor Perry wants in Texas, would be managed by a ‘Spanish’ company.

So they’re going to sell state assets instead of cutting costs to bridge (no pun intended) the deficit? I don’t understand.

That would be marvelous - The Rush Limbaugh, III Memorial Brooklyn Bridge.

Rush said today that New Yorkers total tax burden, including state, federal, local, fees, etc. higher than people in any EU country.

They probably also have a plan to use Federal Troops or out of state NG units to put down the insurrections that will breakout when payroll, retirement and benefit checks start bouncing.

They could sell leases rather than selling public property.

Cry me a river! Why didn’t these idiots put some money away when they had it. I don’t care if they have to slash the budget in half... and then some. Let them try to raise taxes and they will be thrown right out of office.

Where are all these economic “crises” and “calamities” happening? I haven’t seen any in my neck of the woods.

And if they continue to spend like drunken sailors, what do they sell next?

Of course, maybe the Donald can buy New York and just call it TrumpLand.

This jackass isn’t as stupid as the idiot Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm (communist- canada/berkeley) but he’s trying.

Hey Florida is way ahead, they are trying to sell the alligator alley stretch of I-75 so they can raise the toll to $10 each way. Now it’s $2.50. They expect to get $100 million for what tax payers spent much more for. Lots of oil and natural gas off Florida, I bet those royalties would help the budget shortfall.

Florida cities and State was spending like drunken sailors when the real estate market was driving up values, now kaput.
