This poll is clearly RACIST!!
Estimates are that over 25% of the nation’s increased taxes to pay for ObamaCare will be extracted from the corporations and taxpayers of just three states, NY, NJ, CT.
On top of that, the masses of gov workers are fearing they will be reduced to only being able to extort health insurance benefits equal to that of the non-unionized private sector workforce, which is just terrible! Terrible I say!
Also, this has nothing to do with the voting tendencies of most voters in NY State.
1. NY spends more per capita for healthcare than any other state.
2. NY Medicaid spends the most per capita in the country.
3. The very powerful Nurses unions in NY are well aware of the austerity measures about to crush their profession.
4. New Yorkers have very high cost of living, with coinciding higher incomes, which will now bounce them up in the new Obama tax brackets while their real purchasing power parity with lower cost of living states will fall pretty dramatically in the coming years.
6. New York has an aging population of taxpaying voters, they are now facing SS, SSI, Medicare, and government pension scheme payment and purchasing power reductions, most of it to subsidize the flyover country people, the rest to pay off Chinese bondholders and TBTF banksters.
7. On top of now facing higher Federal income taxes, lower household and corporate purchasing power, and a relatively reduced standard of living, New Yorkers will be subsidizing the health care of those flyover country honkies. IN NO WAY WILL THAT MAKE NEW YORKERS MORE LIKELY TO VOTE IN KIND WITH THE FLYOVER COUNTRY.
Most of NY State will continue to be a one party state, the tantrum lies in the fact that Schumer and Wiener are not looking out for the local interests of their constituents, pissing off the base.
OPPPSSS god =good
Repeal ZeroCare
Repeal it!
When the doors and windows of the medical professional buildings are boarded up, the asswipes that are drawn to Obamacare will begin to see their fate.
They really, really do.
But, so far, they haven't. As a party, at any rate -- though several GOP candidates have adopted that position.
Are they running scared? Afraid to offend?
That will only lose them votes this time around.
If the 'Pubbies want to win -- and WIN BIG -- they need to take a stand on a few issues. Healthcare is one of them.
Hey, Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Michael Steele, we're watching...
Maybe this time.
My “representative” is Maurice “Did I shoot straight, did I hit it? You know, conservatives remind me of the German Youth of the 30’s” Hinchey. I don’t think that is going to work (All of the above is TRUE!)
It is a lost freaking cause here, can’t wait to get the hades out.
So the state that Obama carried 63% to 36% doesn’t like the “change” they are getting. I can guarantee though that whoever the GOP nominee is in 2012 they’ll lose the NY vote to Obama anyway. New York voters simply can’t understand cause and effect. They repeatedly vote Democrat but can’t understand it when Democrats do something they don’t like. These are stupid people and they’ll never learn.
If it’s 56% in NY it’s gotta be 60% (or more) nationwide.
Do you have a link/more information about that Steve King petition? I can ping FReepers to it... thanks.
Wow, this gives me some hope that perhaps ObamaCare can be repealed...
Many in NY would vote out the Dems, if there were coherent candidates, but the GOP in NY keeps putting up candidates that are doomed to failure.
Guliani or Pataki could beat Gillibrand and probably Schumer
