Been to the border of PA and NY farm counties. PA allows fracking and their small town folks are driving around in brand new pickup trucks. Meantime NY refuses to allow it, and their small town folks drive in beat up pick up trucks. NY and PA border is like East Berlin vs West Berlin during the Cold War.

Yep, the Southern tier has been destroyed by liberal policies emanating from Albany. It’s always been about NYC, nothing more. Western NY should be it’s own state.

Endicott Johnson shoes, IBM, and dozens of other large employers all gone.

I hunt in NY on the PA border....a decade ago the owner of the land I hunt got a nice check from the gas companies till the contract ran out and they never even test drilled by him.

now since Cuomo (and before that Spitzer), there was not going to be any evil drilling.

so they will drill it and suck it out in PA and NY will get zero and this could have made NY economically viable and end income tax. But the Dhimmicrats would not have the power over people if they did that.....

I moved NY to GA a while back. In GA, 2/3rds of vehicles are SUVs, trucks or jeeps. NY sees very few of such on the roads, presumably because they can afford neither the larger size nor increased fuel.

Same as Calexico/Mexicali border. Simply stunning.
