Cuomo blames weather for New York's population decline

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo blamed the upstate weather for prompting New Yorkers to flee to other states.

Cuomo told reporters Tuesday that while job losses and high taxes once drove people to leave New York, his administration has ended that trend and improved the local economic situation.

He said many of the New Yorkers leaving the state now are doing so for personal reasons or decisions that he called "climate based."

The comments came after Cuomo's Republican challenger, Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro, said on Monday that Cuomo has failed to stem the number of New Yorkers leaving for states with lower taxes and more jobs.

But what about Global Warming? NY must be warming up. Why would anyone want to move to a place where it will be even warmer?

“Measuring from 3-4.5 feet (91-137 cm) or more in length, the timber rattlesnake is the largest venomous snake in New York. The record length is 74 ½ inches (189 cm). Timber rattlers impress one as being very stocky; they are large snakes. Despite their size, cryptic coloration allows them to be easily concealed”

Check out New York’s snakes. Both Copperheads and rattlers.

You think Cuomo would get a clue why Texas succeeds while NY stagnates. He hates conservatives and lower taxes. Why should businesses relocate there when the state wants to reem them up the wazoo in taxes and regulations. Keep soaking the so- called rich Cuomo and everyone who has a job is ‘rich’ to soak. I despise him.

I wouldn’t want to live in the climate there, but not in the same way he means it.

It’s too warm in New York because of global warming so they are moving to ... Maine?

Sure, blame the weather in upstate New York, and not your policies. But look at the bright side Andy...the rat, cockroach, and bed bug population in NY City hasn’t been better.

One thing I do miss about NY. I could grow nice tomatoes up there. Here in Texas the summer scorch oftentimes burns them up. Then again mid September through November are really nice temps down here. Oh and I never vote for rotgut Dems - my patriotic duty to the Lone Star state.

I lived in NYC for a long time and through many personal evolutions.

When I first moved to New York I used to run the East River trail daily from 79st to 59st a couple of times (down and back two times).

I ran Central Park on the Weekends.

I thought it was heaven.

But all that said, Wall St is not a welcoming environment for creative thinking.

The guys and gals in that food chain paid Harvard for their credentials and they plan to remove any who stand in their way (unless, of course, those interlopers play by their rules).

I made a great deal of money for my firm for 8 years as a senior investment banker. The Harvard duds fought me every step of the way.

They were trained to manage, not to produce.

They were like China...they stole intellectual property because they couldn't produce it on their own.

Born and raised in Rochester,NY. Spent my career partly in Auburn, then the remainder in the Utica/Rome area. Been retired since 2003 and live just down the street from the old Griffiss Air Base in Rome.

The NY Gov stating my kind isn’t welcome there is reason enough to not move back there.

Its the taxes, the pollution, the crime, the demographics (older folks retiring) and the regulations. It is not the weather.

They’re probably fleeing the Marxist scourge that’s taken over their state. And it’s highly likely the scourge is actually stealing many of the elections and not really winning them by popular support. Marxists aren’t known for following principles of truth and justice.

That would depend where you're at in Arizona.☺ Some areas are paradise compared to the frigged winters and choking heat and humidity in New York.
