Um, New York City has more congressmen, a far bigger population, far bigger economy than most cities/towns in this country and a bigger economy,
population, more congressmen etc than South Dakota, North Dakota, Alaska etc etc. Its not any old “one state”.
Doesn’t matter if it’s the bestest and greatest state in everyone’s opinion and we all agree, it’s still just a single example, and furthermore, a completely irrelevant example to the actual point I was making. Stop avoiding the only relevant question and blathering about New York.
