Every horribly run blue state is going to use this as an excuse to bail out their years of financial mismanagement

No, they'll steal this money as well, and next year raise state taxes "for education and hospitals" while getting more grants from the Feds. Then, theyll blame the Donald for their svhools and hospital being shit.

This. Democrats couldn't balance a budget if they had a book full of blank checks. The money will always somehow manage to "disappear" and they'll be back begging for more gibs before you know it.

Fuck New York until they vote out trash live Governor Zed and stop begging for Federal aid. New York and California want everyone to believe they are economic powerhouses that America can't do without, but they are the the ones always in distress.

How come these archive links never work for me. It says 403 forbidden by cloudflare.

It worked when I switched off of Chrome (to Opera).

Important to note that the factory operations were taken over by Tesla just in April 2018. The factory was built starting in 2013. So it is a great example of state mismanagement, but not necessarily against Tesla.

Something to do with the combination of your ISP provider (actual host and not just company you pay the bill to) and your browser. There are certain sites that don't allow some ISP connections (treating them as spam or DDOS).

Brave seems to bypass many of these as well.

Ah, gut education to create more brain dead people who will believe the fake news media

gut hospitals to have more deaths to blame GEOTUS

As a New Yorker, it makes my blood boil seeing this trash get praised.

New York almost went bankrupt in 1975. Let them this time. EVERY dem governor is going to ask out for a bailout before the 2020 election. All of them are broke. their unfounded pension and Health care liabilities exceed 100 trillion dollars. All of this is so the Marxist / Leftest / cCommies can destroy America and usher in “Utopia’ . The plan was Conceived by Cloward and Piven ( research Cloward–Piven strategy)… Their “strategy” to implement political crisis to achieve a guaranteed annual income was published in the May 2, 1966 of The Nation. Bottom line OVERWHELM all levels of government through four steps 1. Overload and Break the Welfare System ( we are doing this right now. At this level of unemployment States only have 30 days of unemployment insurance monies… then what???). 2. Have Chaos Ensue ( riots )3. Take Control in the Chaos. ( law enforcement n curfews) 4. Implement Socialism and Communism through Government Force. Then Dems plan is for all this to occur before 2020 election. It is imperative we open up,USA business… Or we will go down a deadly road.

I totally agree (and i'm a New Yorker). How is NY so broke when we have the highest taxes and such a strong economy? Where is Cuomo spending our money?

You are surely correct, but the Dems mock the Laffer Curve. It is what Reagan used to set his policies, and probably Trump. In short, at some point, the more you collect the poorer you get as people don't have a will to work when the state takes most of the money anyway. Meanwhile taxing a smaller percent can mean bringing in more.

A lot of people are fleeing the State- unless you're wealthy and don't mind shitty weather for 4 months or so out of the year, it makes zero sense to retire in NYC, Long Island, or most of upstate.

Yes. It will be the greatest transfer of wealth in the history of the world and the American Worker / middle class / taxpayer will get stuck with the Bill

It's like watching a plot line evolve on the Sopranos where Tony and Johnny Sack work with Cuomo to figure out how to suck the money out of a hospital system and leave it a hollow shell.

Gut education... hahahahaha.

Parents are already homeschooling. If Albany let’s him gut hospitals for illegals... he won’t have any taxpayers left in two years.

Not a great argument. It's shitty, but not an argument any leftists will listen to.

That's four things the left cares a lot about, they would put three of those as equal. Hospitals are evil capitalist enterprises though, so from the programmed mind of a leftists they would only see "Coumo is preserving Welfare and Green Energy! Thats a great thing! Stupid conservatives! Angry face, angry face!"

No, focus on the simple fact he is threatening to cut aid to hospitals during a pandemic. That seems terrifying to a leftist, why would he do that?

Also, what does cutting funding to education even mean? They are talking about keeping schools closed for the rest of the year. There is no education to fund, lol.

Dare him to fire the teachers. and no union dues. When businesses broke, lay offs for nowork.when schools out, why not furlough teachers

1
Necrovoter 1 point ago +1 / -0

President Trump should start calling Cuomo out and ask him - Why do you hate the teachers, nurses and doctors so much?

2
Necrovoter 2 points ago +2 / -0

Democrats have been using this line of thinking for decades.

This is the basic formula:

"Give us the money we want (usually via a new tax) or we cut the things we know you liberals value the most."

They used to threaten cutting the fire department, cutting the police, cutting libraries, even cutting funding for the zoo.

Then they switched it out and dropped cutting police and the zoo, and added cutting funding to animal shelters.

Cutting education and hospitals is a newer addition.

Let him do it. Keep the virus going. It’s hitting democrat areas the hardest, which should thin the heard of Biden and Cuomo supporters nicely.

This reminds me of every bad guy in every movie.

So, if Cuomomunist doesn't get fed aid, he's going to create campaign ads for the (R) candidate in the gubernatorial election?

He'll just steal this money, as well.

It’s simple - he thinks/knows the fed will step-in for some things but not for others. He should be preemptively and publicly warned so everyone knows, especially voters.

Yep, we already know what he thinks of NYers and now he's trying to threaten the President into giving him more federal aid. I don't think this was adequately thought out. Trump curse incoming.
