..............I’m sure, but 40,000 people) outta eight million pay half the tax load in the city...............

So, 40,000 “family” taxpayers, out of about 4 million households support 50% of NYC tax revenues. Amazing! That’s even more skewed than the national statistics!

1% pays 50% of the tab, and Zer0 placed a salary cap of $500k on the bankers. NY is so screwed.

But, we’ll bail out the city, we’re going to take care of every other loser!

That's what its all about, people who actually pay taxes supporting those who don't. There are now more of them than there are of us.

It hits me hard this time of year when I file my tax returns, I see all that money I'm paying in and think of the countless people who are getting their "refunds", who haven't paid in a damn'd dime. It's a bitter pill to swallow.

After hearing that, I’m almost thinking if New York got hit, it wouldn’t be all bad...in a twisted way of course.
