NY State is on the precipice

Its largest source of income, the income tax - 40% of tax is paid by 1% of taxpayers

Its second largest source of income, the Federal Government, is already $40 trillion in debt and facing rising interest rates

NY City budget ($115 billion) is same as the entire state of Florida ($117 billion), but with less than 1/3 the people

NY State’s medicaid spending is more than TWICE per capita the next highest state.

NY is a one-party state, dominated by woke government, with a constantly declining population. It attempts to boost that (and thus maintain federal money) with migrants, who generally pay no taxes and only consume services.

NY State deserves to crash, and hard. It will never reform itself otherwise.
