The smart capitalists should simply leave NYC and take their companies.

The next step should be to have other states nulify their income tax grab efforts of NY authorities for people who no longer live in NY.

NYC’s new anthem is “Gone with the Wind”.

I hope so, too!

I notice lots of references by blacks of plantations, slavery, chains etc. Would it be too brash to assert that maybe they long for the days Ante Bellum. After all they were fed, housed, given medical care, never had to make a decision by themselves such as when to get up when to go to bed. All it would take to return them to those halcyon days would be the repeal of one amendment to the constitution. I can see them now, that long line at sunset coming home and signing songs about Jordan finally happy.

If this is how he feels about the only economic engine that is keeping the entire state of NY from becoming Detroit....then Wall St. - all of them - should find a new place where they are welcome.

I think you’re right; some people just don’t want to make decisions about their life and would prefer to burden someone else with it. Thing is, that the ‘owners’ eventually hate having to deal with the high level of responsibility placed on their shoulders by having to manage and care for so many.
