NYC used to get about 30% of it’s bills paid by the rest of the country (through Federal tax deductions)...

Gee, Doesn’t seem like they’ve accepted the change.
Seems like they expect Biden to bring that money back come November.

But you are repeating yourself. The rats and the Democrats are one and the same thing.

It used to be nice. Lots of interesting things to do. I could spend 2 weeks in the Museum of Natural History, but you couldn't pay me to go there now. Cuomo and DeBlasio have destroyed the city. No one is safe.

At the moment, I live about 40 miles from NYC.

Trying to move 1500 miles west to a state that appears to be the only state with pure common sense-South Dakota.

In the mean time, I am locked and loaded.

“I could spend 2 weeks in the Museum of Natural History, but you couldn’t pay me to go there now.”

Chicago has some wonderful museums, zoos, aquariums,planetarium etc too. Haven’t been to any of them in over 20 years and that was only accommodating visiting guests’ desires. Then too, Chicago wasn’t anywhere near the shithole it is now. I even worked in the heart of downtown Chicago quite securely for 17 years. It’s a whole new world now.

The NYC Democrat elites are shielded from all these afflictions against society. They have their own garbage disposal system, private security, kids go to private schools, etc, etc. they don’t care what happens to average New Yorkers....

Maybe they can replace garbage men with social workers too. Just like the police.
