The immigrants come into NYS but how long do they stay, without any jobs for them and taxes so high, most of the rich have moved out of the state and this trend will continue until NYS does something with it's taxes to make this state more business and resident friendly.

Well all of the good people that need this here welfare come right to our front door dont they? We have th ebest around and they know it, how come none of the politicians say anything about doing away with that? Maybe good people would come here and stay if there wasn't so many welfare people on the astreet walking around all day with nothing to do but collect the check?


God Sal, how election season has changed your tune.. huh?

If you hate NY so much--move out.  MT said he did.  Also another statistic to chew on--many seniors who move to Florida move back here within 20 years because the healthcare is better here than Florida.

We are officially changing our slogan from "I love New York" to .. "I tolerate New York" i hear..

I think most of these people here "love" New York, they just are mad at the state it's in..
But.. I have 3 siblings, i am the only one left in NY

Census: NYC is growing, upstate shrinking

BY MICHAEL HILL The Associated Press

    Census estimates released Tuesday show growth in the New York City region over the last decade and a continuing exodus from some upstate areas.
    The U.S. Census Bureau reports that 19.5 million people lived in New York on July 1, 2009, up by more than a half-million since the last official count in 2000. New York City accounted for most of that growth — 383,195 people — though Long Island and suburban Hudson Valley counties also grew in the last decade.
    “That’s great news for our city’s economy and a tribute to everyone who is working to improve our city’s quality of life and help New Yorkers live longer,” New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said in a statement.
    New York City’s growth has been helped by thriving immigrant communities. Some suburban growth north of New York City has been attributed to jittery city residents moving after the Sept. 11 attacks. Fast-growing mid-Hudson Valley areas like Orange County also benefited from house hunters priced out of more expensive areas closer to the city.
    The story was different in many upstate areas, which have been losing population for decades as people, especially young college graduates, leave for the South and West. The Census reports that the fastest population decreases among counties were rural. Topping the list was northern New York’s Hamilton County, which lost 8.4 percent of its population since 2000; Delaware County, which lost 5.3 percent; and Cattaraugus County, which lost 5.1 percent.
    Erie County, home to Buffalo, lost 4.3 percent of its population and had the largest numerical drop of any county: 41,018.
    The estimates are based on records of births, deaths and migration patterns. That differs from the actual population count now under way.

I hope the people who move out of NY will vote more intelligently than they did in NY. Hope they don't vote for liberals in their new home state (assuming the majority of people who moved out are liberals).

How New York state lost $71.7 billion
By GERALD PRANTE
Last Updated: 4:57 AM, September 26, 2010
Posted: 1:27 AM, September 26, 2010

Since our nation’s founding, the population center has gradually moved south and west for economic opportunity. During the 19th century, the cause was new land: the Louisiana Purchase, the annexation of Texas and west to the Pacific. In the 20th century, the boom of Southern California and the interstate highway system made moving west easier. New immigrants mostly settle in the southwest, so when the new 2010 Census is released, the population center of a nation that was once near Baltimore will fall in Arkansas, Missouri, or even Oklahoma.

Southward and westward migration has created a vicious circle for rust-belt states like Michigan. When labor leaves for better opportunities elsewhere, it takes customers and businesses with it, leaving less opportunity for the existing population, who then thinks about leaving.

New York is a particularly troubling case. According to IRS records examined by the Tax Foundation, more income has left the state than any other — $71.7 billion from 1993 to 2008. For every dollar that migrated to New York from other states in that time period, $1.71 left, which is also the highest of any state..................>>>>...................>>>>......................http://www.nypost.com/p/news/business/how_new_york_state_lost_billion_BXeAE5fDZxv1G1xpLLza9N

it's a circle jerk in NYS


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
