ALBANY - Warning of an approaching economic calamity, Gov. Paterson yesterday called an emergency session of the state Legislature - and raised the specter that New York may have to sell off roads, bridges and tunnels to close a massive budget deficit.

Cut, Cut, Cut!
I doubt it though. Raising taxes will be the most obvious action.
NY has NY City, and the rest of the State. NYC and Wall Street maybe can afford the expensive mandates from Albany, the bloated Gov’t sanctioned Public-sector Unions at every turn, over-regulation and useless regulation (they are now debating it trans-fats should be allowed), but the rest of the state can not, and is slowly turning into Appalachia.
They leave NY, NJ, MI, etc, come down here to FL and vote for the same sort that screwed up their home states.
And then they blame it on Republicans and “rich folk”
As Rush celebrates his twenty years, I have been thinking of all rush has meant to me. Attending Dan’s Bake Sale all those years ago was definitely a highlight! I still have a pic of me and Bo Snerdley in my office. Thanks for the memories, Rush!

NY NY
Led by a lying democrat Governor who replaced a lying democrat Governor!
I bet it was fun to be at that!
On his first day didn’t he admit that both he and his wife had affairs? lol
Yep!
May sound silly but I do have a fear of who could buy something like that, the Saudi’s. Someone who could decide to close it down or somesuch.
Plus, you never really know who you’re selling to anymore as they go through third parties, etc.
I don’t like America being sold to foreigners!!!
Gotta go cook!
Cry me a river! Why didn’t these idiots put some money away when they had it. I don’t care if they have to slash the budget in half... and then some. Let them try to raise taxes and they will be thrown right out of office.
as high as their taxes are you wouldn’t think they would run out of money lol...
Where are all these economic “crises” and “calamities” happening? I haven’t seen any in my neck of the woods.
And if they continue to spend like drunken sailors, what do they sell next?
Of course, maybe the Donald can buy New York and just call it TrumpLand.
BURN THE WITCH!!!!
LOL......
This jackass isn’t as stupid as the idiot Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm (communist- canada/berkeley) but he’s trying.
I read an article a few weeks back..
I’m still trying to find it again.
But basically it said Granholm was turning Michigan red because of her incompetence.
LOL!
