So in other words, prior there was 100% Conservative Rs in government? Yeah, you and Wendy can go fly into the night sky. Beside FL, most of those escaping from high tax states are people predisposed to low tax. Leftists remain behind.

Please exercise accuracy in future posts.

Thank you.

New York’s expensive startup initiative only created 76 jobs. Start-Up New York promised 2,000 jobs, but only delivered 76.
That was after the state spent $28 Million in a National Ad campaign.

But I'll bet their friends and relatives who own those ad companies are smiling.

Romney score a narrow win in NC, but they may be “Ready for Hillary” there in 2016.

Not true...those escaping high tax states are also likely people who cannot do math...meaning they vote for high taxes every time they can, and then sit around complaining about it. So they go broke after the monster they created comes to eat them, then run away and start the whole process over in a southern, low tax state where they start complaining about stupid "rednecks" who don't want higher taxes.

You obviously have not witnessed this, so don't cast aspersions on eye witnesses. It's the same as the global warming freaks having their convention getting snowed out in April or their ship stuck in ice in the summer...even when there is evidence refuting their stupid beliefs they don't believe it, so they lie to themselves to make it true!

It could be that most of the businessmen and women don’t trust the New York government. You know the old saying; “WHAT THE GOVERNMENT CAN GIVE, THEY CAN ALSO TAKE AWAY”.
