“..You really think NY will reverse that?”
You are correct - I live here - upstate in Cohoes and grew up in the southern tier/Finger Lakes region.
New York State under the control of “LIBERALS AND DEMOCRATS” is not going to change - it will get worse.
The only option is to move which we might do once my husband retires in a few years.
I also urge President Trump to get the hell out of NY
Move to the new Socialist Republic of Michigan. Similar location to where you are at is Antrim County. Conservative hotbed. Home of Torch Lake voted the most beautiful lake in the world. Give NY the finger....move to MI!
