ALBANY — The coronavirus pandemic has inflicted heavy financial stress and feelings of job insecurity on New Yorkers, a new poll shows.

Siena College found that 77 percent of eligible voters are at least somewhat concerned about the virus and serious financial fallout from it, according to a survey released Monday.

Paying monthly bills was a concern for 51 percent of respondents, compared to 45 percent who weren’t worried.

Younger folks felt the pinch more, with 61 percent of people ages 18 to 34, and 65 percent of the 35-39 set, saying they’re seriously concerned about meeting monthly financial obligations.

Along ethnic lines, that anxiety is highest among Latinos surveyed, 60 percent of whom registered financial concerns. Forty-nine percent of African Americans and 41 percent of whites said they were worried.

Good!
They should worry. I worry about those who don’t care about the financial fallout.

Don’t worry little libs, the government can just give you more and more money. The supply is endless. Just keep voting Dem, they’ll open the spigots.

Reality is going to be very cruel to these idiots, and I’ll enjoy every moment.

To New York, it’s always about themselves. They brought this on themselves and they failed to prepare for this themselves. Of course, they will not learn from it. It’s back to worrying about plastic straws and big sodas next month.

I have been saying that this is a scale or a teeter totter.

On one end, the big fear kid Dr. Fauci sat down. He used projections upon new projections to sit on that scale. He weighed it down in order to gain compliance with his lockdown lockdown and more lockdown solution.

But there is another kid the neighborhood and it is an even bigger one. It is a fear that is slower to arrive, but when it does it is larger more ferocious than any projection Dr. Fauci can bring to bear. It is the fear generated by a lack of long term prospects, savings and businesses being ruined and never being able to recover. It will be slow to sit down. But once it does, it will bring that teeter totter down so hard and fast that it will catapult the other side into space.

Fauci’s failure to realize or consider that will be his greatest failing. It will be because we need a balance here and not one side or the other weighing the scale down.

It’s not the flu bro’s. But it required a more balanced approach.

They will, they go in circles. They elect DeBlasio they moan about what a terrible job he did then they reelect him then they have the gall to blame this virus on Trump when both DeBlasio and Cuomo called him racist for wanting border laws enforced. Border laws include testing immigrants for disease or illness. Instead those two idiots are completely open border/Sanctuary city fanatics who fight against ICE with DeBlasio proclaiming free healthcare for illegals and Cuomo last December giving illegals drivers licenses which sends a message to the world “Sneak into NY, we will set you up!” Now the media is treating Cuomo as a hero.

Name one thing that Cuomo or Diblasio (or Bloomberg) did in the name of disaster preparedness while the New York Stock Exchange was skyrocketing to record highs through Christmas of 2019?? Give one example where they even mentioned it.

Meanwhile, check out this story from an Upstate NY media outlet, an NBC affiliate, and pay careful attention to the methodology info given in the last paragraph of the article. Quite a bit of useful info is missing...

Exclusive Poll: When it comes to virus response, New York prefers Cuomo over Trump CORONAVIRUS 71% of New Yorkers approve Cuomo's handling the state’s response to the outbreak of coronavirus

I can’t.

And the CDC was too busy worrying about BS Climate Change to actually plan for a pandemic. They had ONE JOB!!!!!

Let’s be honest.

I think most New Yorkers are worried about a new sore they found forming on their private parts.

The financial thing may cut into their social life.


The above analysis is based on New York’s voting track record.

(”New York” is a trademark of New York City, as the rest of the state does not matter.)

I’m going to get the Pledge Report from my church on Friday.

I don’t even want to think about it.

A lot of people are going to have to cut back, because they have no money coming in. If this goes on much longer, money is going to start flowing the other way.
