NY is a one-party, left-progressive state - and everything that comes with that.

its not a good place for manufacturing.

Never bought a Dunlop in my life.

Sales were “flat” after profits were “treading” water and now the workforce was “slashed.” Some chose to “re-tire” before the earnings “blew out.”

Never had Dunlop tires but I can say my belly has done lopped over my belt line.

Hochul gets it dry, just like Moammar Gaddafi...

RE: Never bought a Dunlop in my life.

But as some middle aged men discovered they suffered from the Dunlop Disease.

They gained weight and tried to tighten their belts but their bellies done lopped over them.

Wow! The Dunlop plant has been there time out of mind.

I was composing my own tribute to that old joke but yours won by being faster.

I salute you.

I bet the unions had a lot to do with it.

Moving south, or paying tariffs?

NOBODY, with any sense, are staying in blue states.

[crusty old prospector]

I had some Dunlap’s on my 1976 Camaro.

[fhayek]

Spare me...

NYS is a horrible state to own a business in.

Mr mm ha a small business there once and had a run in with the state. They’re cold blooded and nasty. He closed up shop.

If we’re such a one party progressive state, why does Deep State have to steal our elections?

[frank ballenger]

Now I feel deflated.

Western New York is not liberal NYC. That area is home to two Indian reservations, as well.

Actually I was surprised Dunlop still manufactured tires in the U.S. let alone New York.

Did you expect a foreign company to care about you?

You did?

Well now do you feel silly?

[blackdog]

Gee, I hope they are not over-valued?
