Marist Poll: New Yorkers Fed Up, Want Out
Newsmax ^ | April 19, 2024 | Sam Barron

A new Marist poll shows New Yorkers have a bleak view of their state, with residents saying the economy is going down the tubes, the cost of living is unaffordable, and nearly four in 10 say they plan to move out in the next five years.

A majority of New Yorkers, 51%, said they think the state's economy is getting worse, up from 29% in 2013. The poll found 30% of respondents say their financial picture will get worse, up from 17% in 2013.

In one important metric, 81% of New Yorkers said the cost of living in the state is either "not very affordable" or "not affordable at all," up from 77% in 2011.

Hahahahaha-—we used to golf at Devil’s ridge and “The Neuse” and that’s what all the locals told us every time we went!

They're not upset that it's a crime-ridden dump, they're upset because they need to search for a new plantation.

The slave is in search of a perfect master, the ideal plantation where masters provide resources without demanding too much, if any, work at all.

None of this matters. As long as the Democrats can count 51% of votes in their favor, the misery will continue.

At some point, the cheaters that the Left depends on are going to need to figure out that they are making things worse for themselves and their children. Until that happens, there will be no change.

Not to worry they’ll change their vote … to another Democrat.

None of these folks seem to be getting on Trump’s jury. Are they those short term smarty pants conservatives who lie to keep off stupid juries? Are they too afraid of being targeted by Antifa if they get on and vote Not Guilty? I hope at least one poor truly conservative soul finds the courage to get on that jury.

I get what you’re saying but you can’t cast out the baby with the bathwater.

Cary was a nice little place in the late 80s.

I lived in Morrisville.
