Cuomo and state legislators butted heads on big-ticket budget items, including the tax hike that will impose a roughly 1 percent increase on New Yorkers who make more than $1 million a year and establishes new tax brackets for the state’s highest earners.

Oh FUCK this.

Who are they kidding? Just because you're successful, you now owe the government more?? What's to incentivize me to make $1,000,001 now? They're just going to take it all.

And what will they do with it? Fund programs I don't need like universal pre-K or low-income housing? How does that help me? What do I get out of it??

When Trump was President, this country realized that a good deal meant you got something in return. This stinks!

Practically speaking, if you make over a million a year, you will simply move, either to a neighboring commuter state or just somewhere else.

NY literally has tax agents in FL who monitor exiles to make sure they stay in FL for half a year. Not kidding. They literally spy on people who flee their state.
