As Gov. Paterson and legislative lead ers meet today to tackle a multibil lion-dollar budget shortfall, they should note a new report's warning: New Yorkers are fleeing in droves -- and it's wreaking havoc with the public fisc.
The report, by the Empire Center for New York State Policy, shows that some 1.5 million people left the state between 2000 and 2008 -- including 1.1 million from New York City alone.

Even more if they're with the Knicks, Mets or Bills. ;-P
Just like the Mexicans come to America to live the American dream, and then demand to be treated like poor Mexicans! They bring their failed culture with them. The liberals bring their failed policies with them. It lacks common sense.
DAMN Yankees!
I know about Damn Yankees because I went to Abbeyville SC where my ancestors settled in 1760 and went into an antique store run by a lady with a definite Northeast accent. She said people around there call her that. She said there are Yankees and there are DAMN Yankees.
I left whe I enlisted in 1978. When I visit my family I have a different perspective: You (y’all) see, I lost my distinctive Lawnguylant accent years ago: You just see the wheels in the head of native noo yawkers turning:”How can I Screw this yokel out of his cash”
Bad guess, they’re coming south. Once there, they will bring the mechanization to vote in the same type of Demonrat that drove them out of NY.
No, the job providing, successful are fleeing New York, leaving only the poor and the leeches. Who have nothing to tax beyond what they are gioven by the bribing demoPoliticians, who are quickly losing anyone they can steal and rob any more money from, to bribe the poor and the leeches into voting them into their offices again and again.
And when NY collapses these self same DemoRats who destroyed NY, will move in land and try to dio them same “good intentions” in other cities, that they haven’t allready infested and are leecing the lifeblood out of.
Bet NY state figures out a way to tax them before they leave. You know, kinda like a leave-the-state tax of 20%.
“NY and CA, the answer is OBVIOUSLY to raise the taxes again.”
That is all the dimoKKKRATS know how to do. Tax and spend even more.
Hey, I resemble that remark!
Once I get to your state, I will make a beeline for guns and ammo, the the CC license. While in the waiting period, I will join the local republican club.
Trouble is, right now I am in tokyo converting my NYS license to a Japanes one. No guns for the meantime..
But the locals get a kick out of my Reagan tshirts!
This may explain it !
Argumentative anihilation is being sectioned off now as the spirit of Korah shows no sign or redemptive values towards the spirit of Unity and in this the spirit of death has been released do to an unrepentive nature “ yeah “ posture , so strange fire and reproach is their only fruit .
Come away from their tents as Leviathan coils around them as an Adder and poisons their minds for truly they hatch only unworthiness “ yeah “ condemnation the spawn of satan himself .
So fear not my children for I am your Aaron “ yeah ‘ your priest standing in the midst of you as your saving grace and I shall deliver you from their ways as my incense of Unity unites only those true of heart to the Father’s ways and trust in the knowing I Am The Lord of Hosts , King of kings and Lord of lords “ El Shadai “ .
Texas is hot and humid. Hurricanes every year. Oil derricks spew oil all over your house. Joe Lieberman says we have to check the newspapers for pollution index to see if we can let the children out to play.
Just a terrible place to live. Please don’t come here. Don’t mess with Texas!
That's right. The south is a bunch of redneck hicks who want to marry your children to our children at very young ages. You don't want to come down here......please........just tough it out where you're at. In fact, just like the Kool Aid GWB Repbublicans always say: don't abandon, just reform. The northeast NEEDS y'all. LEAVE THE SOUTH AS IT WAS!
Look what has happened to Florida and the Carolinas. Give it another ten years without a change in the trend and it is possible that Georgia falls into the iffy column. The northern suburbs of Atlanta may already be over 50% transplants.
Admittedly, Senator Chambliss is a stuffed shirt and still easily won his run off election, but the democrat should have never been close enough to trigger one.
The worthless yankee liberals have done a lot of damage to both Carolinas. NC used to be a really good state to visit.
I am a Yankee as was my Father and his Father before him. My family has lived in New England for several hundred years. You wouldn’t find anyone more conservative than we are. God fearing , military people. My two sons now live in Texas because NE is so opposite to what they believe. Hope you don’t want to kick us out because we really like it here.
exactly right, NC is living proof.
We call them Damn Yankees for a reason around here.
Mmmmm, okey dokey, podner. Just sit a spell in that there rockin chair, share my spitoon n let me tell ya how it works down here. If’n y’all then decide y’all like it here then I am shore there could be a piece a propity over yonder hill y’all might git yer hands on.
