I have lived in NY for all 37 years of my life, always thought the life of an upstater could justify everything else you have to deal with in this state....now I am leaning more towards heading down south. For the amount of taxes I pay, my streets should be paved with gold and the garbage man should come in my home and take the trash out for me, but we all know where that money gets funneled to. It also makes me almost sick to my stomache to see the State advertise our lotto with little kids, praising that your $1 and a dream goes right to education...really? Doesn't seem to be helping Buffalo Schools, and my rural district still needs to raise the tax EVERY YEAR!
We live in a state with no hope for the middle class! I am the 3rd generation of our family business....celebrating our 80th year...I always joked i would retire at our 100th, but doubt we make it there with the business climate and liberal slanted state
