NYC subsidizes the entire rest of the state, without us New York is just cold Alabama, maybe learn to run a city without being in a budget deficit for over a decade *cough cough* Buffalo

Buffalo currently has no social services at all because the state deemed the people there “too expensive” and not profitable enough Not to mention all of the extreme natural resources drain that is stolen from the people in upstate and western

you can’t take care of yourself, rely on my city for bailouts every single year to balance your budgets, and then complain about how much NYC causes you to “suffer”, upstate would be an even bigger blackhole without the economic output of NYC and the surrounding suburbs. Deindustrialization happened over 50 years ago and you’ve yet to build anything meaningful other than a nfl team that can’t win in the playoffs

Wow what a massively progressive take It really was shitty when all of those European colonialies just stole Belgian and English money and couldn’t even build up their nations with them especially when u look at how poor they are to their colonial powers they should all just be more self reliant
