I suspect the people upstate will simply accelerate what had been a slow exodus south; NY has lost 20 seats in the House of Representatives between 1980 and 2010

Talked to a friend several months ago from the military. He settled in western New York. Never thought he would leave. He retires in a year and said he will purchase a small home they can come back to, but he's selling where he lives now, and buying a primary home someplace in the Central US (he narrowed it do

His daughter moved out of state as have several of the nieces/nephews. Just better job opportunities elsewhere.

Do you really think he cares what his citizens think, though?

Now he’s opening the liquor stores for shipping...Why are wineries and distilleries capable of doing curb side pick up but the liquor stores aren’t?

Oh...government...

[Bob434]

of course he did- so he can have 2 more weeks of free airtime to boost his presidential bid- either this year or following election- People are dying needlessly in NY because he won’t allow HCQ to EVERYONE- just so he can remain on TV pleading for help- Trying to garner sympathy for is state- at the expense of now over 14,000 dead folks who in all likelihood didn’t have to die-

No wonder the msm and liberal women are gushing over him- they are all sick-

...a decision that he said was made in consultation with other regional states New York has allied with to plan an eventual economic revival.

I thought interstate commerce was regulated by the federal government, and not states or groups of states.

[Bob434]

the last administration loved himself immensely- he set records for saying “I I I, Me Me Me, My My My”

I don’t think most people realize how ideologically different NY State is from NY City; I think most tend to lump everyone in “New York” together. Unfortunately for NY state, the decline has been going on for decades; I think the trend is for people to leave for school or work and then to simply never come back.

Cuomo’s TV appearances are on the same level as Home Shopping Network.

Except there is only one product being sold: Andrew Cuomo.

[Bob434]

Can NY’ers get a refund?

This isn’t a pause for 30 more days, this is a hard stop to millions of jobs.

Hey Fredo’s brother. Why didn’t you shut down mass transit in NYC? How many people did you KILL by not doing so? Wash your hands all you want, you can’t wash their blood off your hands.

[mewzilla]

In the last 60 years NYS has lost almost half the House seats it once had.

I’m betting we lose 2 more this time around.

[afchief]

If anyone read the bogus Stimulus bill they would FIND where Hospitals will receive more government funding for reporting deaths from the Corona Beer Virus.

WE ARE BEING LIED TO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mware]

Murphy (NJ) just extended school closing to May15.

[miserare]

He is Andy’s puppet.

[nickcarraway]

Did you see the chart from Denver in 2018?

[Widget Jr]

Please clarify, I do not understand your question.

[1Old Pro]

Cuomo said he can’t open upstate because then all the downstaters would rush to the upstate barbers..sheesh, what an imbecile.

Instead, we’re all going to Vermont and spend our money there - screw NY.

[Grampa Dave]

Mario’s stupid son is at it again. It is the American people, not the government who will decide when this lockdown is over. You can’t arrest millions of people who have had it with this bullshit.

Quarantines only work to keep a small amount of sick people from going out!

They don’t work to keep the vast majority of healthy people locked inside.

Thanks to HotHunt for this great visual!
