But in this case, she’s like a broken clock. NY is paying $45,000 per year for these jobs, making their debt crisis WORSE not BETTER. (Since when does anyone making $130,000 per year actually pay $45,000 in taxes?)
That depends how you define “taxes”. It’s not likely that they’re referring to income taxes alone but also property taxes and/or rent taxes, HOA fees, income, sales/use, payroll and personal property taxes.
