I live in NYS.

Note to the other 49: Refuse to bail out NYC. It’s the kindest thing you can do for NYS.

Wonder if anyone in the MSM will ask De blasio just what happened to the $757 million his wife can’t account for with her extremely well funded “mental health” program.

We can chide NYC for its fiscal irresponsibility, and rightfully so, but NYC is downright frugal compared to the federal government,

The average liability per New York City household has increased by more than $1,500 to $82,577, according to the Citizens Budget Commission.

That sounds like a lot, and it is, but it is a fraction as bad as the federal problem. If you count federal liabilities the same way—not just what we call the “national debt,” but including things like unfunded pension liabilities for federal employees and unfunded Social Security and Medicare liabilities—federal long term liabilities are $84 trillion, which is $670,000 per household.

This is nuts, and we had better start getting serious about it.

Maybe they can borrow some money from Puerto Rico.

Keep spending money on illegal immigrants, welfare recipients, and abortions, you’re going to keep losing taxpayers.

Time for New York to print its own currency. Then it can print its way out of this.

For a while.

Maybe New York State could be renamed New Venezuela, and New York City, New Caracas?

In addition to usual running out of other people’s money to spend, the murder rate in the city is up 30% and the wealthy are increasingly moving out.

Maybe New Detroit?

The refugees from NYC should relocate to Calizuela and the refugees from Calizuela should relocate to NYC, and the rest of us will be happier for it.
