Because our tax dollars are being spent there. Not that you would know anything about that. People on spousal support usually dont pay taxes.

in FY 2024 NY sent $76B more in federal taxes than it received in federal funds.

Compare that with Mississippi that received $33B more in federal funds than it sent in taxes, and Bammer which received $45B more in funds than it sent in taxes.

California and NY pay for all the welfare MAGA states get.

Yourwhole post is conjecture and wishcasting. You hope that the states collapse (even though it hurts miss. welfare in the long run) so you eventually despite decades of being wrong you're proven "right" in the end.

This right here.

My brother texted me about “the reps losing momentum” because he believes the stupidity of the MSM. Told him last night was like Bama or UGA crushing La Tech in football and everyone acting as if it was an upset win. The Dems and their media overlords have been beaten and humiliated so badly by Trump they are desperate for anything they can claim as a win. They want Commdoni to be the face of their party going forward. The Reps should happily accommodate that. Vance will maul whatever clown they trot out in 2028. Good luck in those swing states with a platform of handing out free stuff to non citizens!

"Regarding Virginia - did Youngkin govern so poorly that the Dems were able to gain? Or did he do a good job but it didn't matter because too many people focus on the parties and not policy and performance? Probably the latter, but I don't live in VA so..."

I don't think it was a case of Youngkin doing a bad job, it was a case of Trump being the president. I don't think Trump was president at the last election and with Trump's Doge removing all these worthless fat asses from their jobs this is the only way they could retaliate. We know how everything that happens is Trumps fault and in this case, it was, because of their major TDS and loss of employment.

Steve Bannon is basically right. We can either get rid of all the social Darwinist weirdos that want to get rid of Social Security and Medicare or we can lose the culture wars. If we let all of these globalist billionaires wreck the social safety net the left will inevitably take power and win on issues like men in women's sports, open borders, DEI, etc.

It's amazing to me that some Republicans thought this election would go well for them when you're basically holding substantial premium increases over the American people. MTG is also right, BTW. If you don't want universal health care Republicans will have to fix the health care system.

I wish they would fix the system. Somehow the repubs are unable to even put together a plan to replace the current one.

I honestly cannot wait to watch NYC implode.

Everyone who wants it for free will stay and many more of the same will go there, and everyone who is expected to pay for all of this will be gone.

FFS, you're ignorant. Our tax dollars are spent everywhere...I don't spend a second of my day worrying about what any Mayor in any random red city is doing.

And you're projecting again...you're the one who had a wife who divorced them, not me.

TBF, NYC isn't just a typical random city. It's the hub of finance in our country, and seeing a socialist mayor elected SHOULD BE concerning to many people outside of NYC. We'll see how it goes. I strongly doubt he does a good job.

Yet in order they previously elected Bloomberg, DeBlasio, and Adams. Each was touted (especially DeBlasio) with the same type of aim, and potential effect.

NYC (or any city) really cannot move the needle on anything outside its own area, and even in its own area, the actions of a city are put on pretty tight leash.

Yes its the hub of finance in our country. I dont see how a mayor of NY can affect that in the slightes -- the 'closest' governing entity that conceivably could affect that is the State of New York.

So great, Zohran gets elected with a background of democratic socialism. All he can really do is confined to City actions, and even then, and even no matter how zealous a Democratic Socialist he is -- his actions have to be governed by his tax coffers. And the limitations of the office. Both of which he really cannot go out and affect on a grand scale in the slightest.

Its like my friend who ran for a County District Clerk of a major metro area. Her first campaign was filled with all sorts of paeans to her very progressive politics -- all of which meant *zero* in the position she ran for and ultimately won.

Zohan talks a big epoch game -- but the game he can actually play is highly restricted in what it can do by the State of New York.

you are the one advocating for "collapse" not me. I wish Mississippi would be smarter and generate more wealth for its residents which will lessen the amount of welfare they receive.

That presents a problem to the republicans though. Once people get a little smarter and a little wealthier, they tend ot not vote R straight tickets. How else are they supposed to keep power and divert funds for poor people to disgraced footballers and Volleyball stadiums?

It's amazing that someone who has never held a decent job or amounted to anything by himself, in other words, a basement dweller could have bamboozled so many people. But, I guess the promise of "freebies" can sway most free loaders and dumb S Demonic voters.

I wonder how many stupid Jews voted for him? If they did, boy, they are some special kind of stupid. LOL

its going to take more than 1 term of a democratic socialist (not a socialist) to get the NYSE to move. Investment companies have spent $Bs in infrstructure on the NYSE to get information marginally faster than competitors. No one has the kind of Airport infrastructure to handle the international demand of greater NY either. His economic policies are to raise corporate income tax to match NJ and raise income tax for >$1MM income 2%. Likely to see some flight but I bet dollars to donuts corporations will not move over that kind of tax increase.

There are parts of "the 'sip" that ARE 3rd world countries and it has nothing to do with "Republican Guidance". It is just the opposite. Those areas have been run by Democrats since the beginning of time, and those areas contribute absolutely NOTHING to the tax base of the state. Mississippi Casinos pay a 16% on GROSS revenue to the state, and has the lottery. That is the ONLY way those that live in the "3rd world" areas pay into the tax base. THOSE areas are the sole reason MS is considered last in everything, even though it is no longer true due to total Republican control for the past decade or so.

Uh, okay, Not-So-Happy-Appy. You sure about that? A lot of people and even companies have promised they've move out of NYC if Mamdani was elected mayor of the Big Apple. Well, lookie lookie watch ya pookie, NYC. Looks like you're gonna royally screw yourselves. Don't say we didn't warn ya.

In other words, if enough companies relocate to another part of the country, I wouldn't be surprised if the NYSE as a whole did that either.

We agree on something. Twice inside 24 hours.

The more disturbing notion is that this becomes a national trend at some point and grows beyond blue cities. To blue states, then nationally.

Then we have an abominable mess on our hands.

If he manages to get even a fraction of the taxation he has "promised" through, NYSE is not going to pay up for a couple years until the next person comes in.... once that money is flowing in, it will never be reversed. NYSE and those tied to it are for profit.... in case you forgot.

You're going to have to convince the Black population, which is the highest per capita of any state in the country, to stop having multiple children out of a wedlock while being unemployed. That is a business decision they have figured out over the past 2 generations and it is only getting worse.
