New York Democrats overwhelmingly say migrants 'serious' problem: poll

An overwhelming majority of Democrats in New York view the migrant crisis in the state as a severe problem, according to a poll.

A new survey from the Sienna College Research Institute found that 75% of New York Democrats see the migrant crisis in the state as a "very serious" or a "somewhat serious" problem, with 47% of the respondents saying it's dire and 28% saying its somewhat consequential.

The shock poll comes as the migrant crisis has especially hit New York City. The Big Apple accounts for roughly 40% of the state's population and has been grappling with the influx of more than 130,000 migrants since last year.

Mayor Eric Adams recently sounded the alarm about the problem, saying it would "destroy" the city.

"Let me tell you something, New Yorkers. Never in my life have I had a problem that I did not see an ending to," Adams said in September. "I don't see an ending to this. I don't see an ending to this. This issue will destroy New York City. Destroy New York City. We're getting 10,000 migrants a month."

Adams has urged wealthy individuals in the area to open their wallets to help the city weather a financial storm created by the ongoing crisis just days after the city unveiled deep budget cuts.

"This is a moment where it’s an all hands on deck moment," Adams told a Police Athletic League lunch last Friday, according to the New York Post.

"The way it goes, New York goes, America goes, but I’m going to need you more than ever to support many of these organizations like PAL, Robin Hood Foundation, and others," he said. "A moment where our philanthropic interests must align with some of the gaps and services that we are seeing today."

These selfish bastards were just fine when it was just the border states being overwhelmed.

Selfish bastards, is a pretty fair description. 👍

In other news a CNN poll indicated that 73% believed the immigration problem was Trump’s fault. :-). Just made that one up but it could be true.

Funny how it wasn’t a problem until they had to deal with it.

Kinda easy to ignore when they are all in CA and TX and other Western. States. Once again people can’t extrapolate to see how letting a few broken windows go by causes bigger problems in the future. Crap festers and it will bite you in the ass someday.

Courts Pave Way for New York Quarantine Camps! By Bobbie Anne Flower Cox.

The reason the public has dubbed this regulation the “quarantine camp regulation” is because the language makes it clear that the DOH can pull you from your home and hold you anywhere they deem appropriate.

NY ranked ‘Least Free State,’ with high taxes, debt, regulation: study
NY Post ^ | 11/20/2023 | Carl Campanile

New York once again has the dubious distinction of being labeled “the least free state” in America, according to a report issued by libertarian-leaning think tank The Cato Institute.

The Empire State ranked dead last — 50th — for policies impacting economic, social and personal freedoms in 2022, the report claims.

Democrats are pure evil...

And dumber than a bag of hammers.

They refuse to see their positions lead directly to these types of outcomes.

Let them simmer in their vats of sewerage.
