Most New Yorkers love New York, but does New York love most New Yorkers? It doesn’t seem so.
Gov. Cuomo treats them like children, and Mayor de Blasio like idiots. That’s why you could roll a bowling ball down many Midtown sidewalks these days, in broad daylight, and not hit more than an overflowing trash basket or a nodding-out junkie.
This is merely one symptom, of course. The true dysfunction resides in City Hall and Albany. But there are many more symptoms, and people are noticing.
Consider:
New York City, paralyzed by race-driven ideology and administrative incompetence, and totally outmatched by its teachers’ unions, can’t open its schools — even though charter and parochial schools seem to be doing just fine. Parents are paying attention.

I hate New York......I hate New York.......sarc
Just clearing the way for the millions of ChiComd who will flood the city when Cameltoe opens the borders.
Totalitarians have utter contempt and hatred of those they tyrannize.
It is nothing new.
Real estate prices don’t lie. Commercial and residential real estate values are down over 20% in NYC compared to peak and are dropping daily. Buyers and people willing to sign long term leases are scarce. Good news for impoverished illegal immigrants. There are landlords who will rent to them and get the government to pay the rents.
I left in 1985 and it was the best move I ever made .

“Andrew Cuomo and Bill de Blasio sure seem bent on pushing you to flee New York,...”
And people said they couldn’t accomplish anything.
Start loading the trucks, I'm leavin' today
I want to be so far from it
New York, Screw York
These vagabonds turds, soil shoes like wet clay
Right through the very shart of it
New York, Screw York
I wanna to wake up, in a city that doesn't fleece
And take that shiny red pill
My money to keep
These Empire State Thugs
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
Outside Screw York
If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere
Goodbye to you, New York, Screw York
New York, Screw York
I wanna to wake up, in a city that doesn't fleece
And find I'm keeping my dough, free of the creeps
Losing the mask, and restaurant eat
The De Blasio blues, are melting away
I'm gonna make a brand new start of it
Out of Screw York
And If I can make it there
I'm gonna make it anywhere
It's up to you, Screw York
Screw York
Screw York
She soon lost her head over it, at the guillotine.
the3 only people that will be left will be the homeless, who won’t be homeless for long once all the abandoned buildings start opening up-
We left this year and hope to close on our house soon and aren’t looking back.
There are some things I’ll miss about Upstate; the great agriculture and food.
The apple orchards and apple picking.
The NYS Fair.
Wegmans.
Especially Wegmans.......
Where did you go ? I moved to Japan .
Why them?
NH.
The Live Free or Die state.
Great piece, thanks for posting! Saw this linked elsewhere today too. I love Bob McManus, and no disrespect to him, but I’m going to quote the final paragraph. He makes it clear he doesn’t see NYC dying, not yet, but hey, come on guys!
“New York will probably muddle through. It’s a magical place. But what if too many of the folks who help make the magic happen decide the accompanying heavy lift isn’t worth the effort? That could happen, you know. And then what?”
