Wealthy New Yorkers now have to pay their fair share of the FULL COSTS of Democrat/Liberal tax insanity, and they are fleeing the state instead, now that low-tax flyover states are no longer subsidizing via SALT.

So Cuomo has to bend the knee before Trump, and beg for help. Sounds like Trump told him to get bent, cut your taxes, instead.

Socialists ask for higher taxes and are then surprised they get higher taxes?

Enjoy the suck!

Hopefully Trump won’t budge on this. Even though he would save a lot of money.

And Trump told him to consider fracking. Fracking would be a huge help to the southern tier of western NY, and would of course result in large revenues to the state, as well as increases in income tax and sales tax revenues from all the economic activity and hiring that would go along with it. But Andy is too stupid to figure it out.

So Cumo doesn’t want to “soak the rich to help fund welfare and other national programs?

How reactionary of him.

What a sop to billionaires!

Why should Cuomo and friends be concerned about money people fleeing NY?

They'll be making boatloads of cash from the baby parts they'll be selling from those almost born abortions he just signed off on...

This is BS.

People LOVE high taxes.

Why do you think they keep voting for them?

If Cuomo was smart, he’d raise New York taxes EVEN HIGHER.

Then everyone would move there and he wouldn’t have a problem. :)

The Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty (II) was withdrawn from Senate consideration by Jimmah Carter. Suck it, Cuomo!)

That is nothing more than high tax states shifting their tax burden to states that tax their people less.

Really not happy that Trump even meets with the vile Andrew Cuomo.

It is rather strange that Democrats want the rich to pay more. Then the Republicans make that happen and they cry. Anybody paying over 10,000 for their property taxes are rich so this should make the Democrats very happy.

If you think federal taxes are too high, cut your state’s taxes, Governor, says the President.

Now what taxpayer is going to find fault in that simple bit of logic?

It’s refreshing to have a real leader in the White House. And a smart one, too. I get such a kick out of Trump. Imagine what we could do as a nation with 300 congresscritters who could think just like him instead of spending their days whining inbetween checking their tweet status.

There was a time when Connecticut,one of the nation's wealthiest states,was also one of it's lowest taxed states.Then came Governor Lowell Weicker,allegedly a Republican,who decided that the state needed an income tax.

His "courage" earned him the "Profiles In Courage" Award from those paragons of courage,the Kennedys,and set in motion a chain of events that made the state one of the highest taxed in the country.

And now residents of the state's "Gold Coast",home to some of the wealthiest residential suburbs on earth,are fleeing to the Carolinas,Georgia and Florida.

These folks are for higher taxes on the rich until they discover THEY are the rich.

Half of the planet lives on less than $3 per day. And that half all would love to move to America. And the Democrats are openly declaring that it is the God-given right of everyone to move to America and become citizens.

Imagine if tens of millions of foreigners, without the slightest notion of how our Republic works and why it had been so successful, move here and start voting. It’s already happening. The Democrats and RINOs have already stolen our Republic and given our nation’s wealth away while pocketing hefty sums for themselves. It’s happening just like Venezuela, but it just hasn’t reached its apex of destruction.

President Trump is stemming the tide, and I truly hope and pray he is right about our nation never becoming socialist. There are clearly millions of ignorant people who are more than willing to sell our inheritance for a bowl of pottage.

“Wealthy New Yorkers now have to pay their fair share of the FULL COSTS of Democrat/Liberal tax insanity, and they are fleeing the state instead, now that low-tax flyover states are no longer subsidizing via SALT.”

THIS. Basically, Until now, living and paying taxes in a low cost state in order to subsidize people who live and work in states that would be financially impossible to move to. The previous tax structure severely impedes labor mobility, which any economist would say was one if America’s greatest assets.

Why stop at a 10k deduction? Lower the rates further and cut the deduction to zero. Then I’d like to hear Cuomo explain how that would be unfair.
