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.

A climate of high taxes and regulations... will do that ...

So he is right, the political weather is what is driving people away...

The weather is a problem but not the only one.

I am at the same latitude as New York. My father-in-law used to grow some good tomatoes. Just the right amount of heat here.

So I guess it’s not fixable.

Typical libtard logic, reaching for any feeble straw to project blame from himself to just about anything else. How about Cuomo, you are a flaming libtard socialist who vastly prefers illegals to citizens and courts the illegals with all kinds of freebies that we native born Americans could only dream of, all to get them to pull the D lever? How about Cuomo, maybe conservative taxpayers are tired of being called names by the likes of little criminal you? How about the high, higher, highest taxes inflicted upon the hardworking taxpayers of NY, all to keep his social entitlement programs afloat? Then there’s the completely screwed up and unreliable public transportation, NY proudly being called by this punk a sanctuary state for illegals—more useless mouths to feed FOREVER, the definite spectre of dope being legalized as a pander to the young, to get votes-—the list is endless. To say the decline of NY is due to climate change would cause me to wonder if Cuomo isn’t doing a little sampling of dope first before he legalizes it. He has turned NY into a libtard wet dream, with horrible policies right out of the libtard playbook, sure to send any presently functioning entity right down the skids. And, dummy, people are not rooted to the ground to stay here. If the financial environment starts to take a sharp turn south, as in higher taxes and fewer things for them, people will MOVE. A lot have done so already, and a lot more will in the near future. Then you’ll have a state of gibsmedats and very little tax base to feed that monster, you complete fool and criminal.

After consulting with Joe Btfsplk, I learned the problem is Andrew Cuomo and the tax hungry monsters in Albany, NY.

Now we know why people are fleeing California as well. Must be the weather.

Just sayin....with hurricanes, floods, fires, tornadoes in so many parts of the country, parts of New York State are much better for weather. Sure, there's monster snow occasionally, but northerners cope pretty well with it. And it doesn't burn or flood your house or blow it away!

Sorry, Mr. Cuomo, it's not the weather driving people away.

People are leaving upstate New York for Florida and Texas because of climate change? That could be the most illogical climate change argument yet, and that’s saying something!

Destroy all the Bridges and Tunnels leading to Manhattan, and sever all the communication lines and the State of New York will turn Republican overnight.

He didn’t use the term “climate change”-——reading the article can be very helpful.

Ya think his cabinet could get together and Amendment 25 his a$$?

I know that’s a US thing, but they might be able to pull it off before the gov knows it doesn’t apply to him.

Yes but the “climate” in upstate New York is a constant absent “change”. So what’s new if change is not implied?

The way I read it they are not moving because of climate change——they are moving elsewhere,to change climates.

Has been going on for years.
