The up front costs are cheap, but the recurring fees will kill you.
High property taxes, water bills and insurance. Public schools and services are useless. The roads are terrible even though they're always under construction. Grocery stores that sell anything besides liquor and snack food are only located in the suburbs.
New York is a lot more dependent on wealthy residents than San Fran. This once wonderful city will go down faster than Heels Up Harris on Willie Brown.
I saw an interview where a black lady was shown what the Sanders plan would cost. She got pissed off, I want the FREE medicare. I don't want to pay for it! Also my kids need the free college too.
The white flight out of the cities in the 60's & 70's to the suburbs is what doomed the cities like NYC for decades and just when whites finally felt NYC and other cities were safe again the libs pulled the rug out from them yet again. I remember well NYC in the 70's, it was a hell hole littered with stollen cars left stripped up on blocks, burned out buildings in Manhatten, the Bronx & Brooklyn with crime all over, the police were hunted for sport... Deblasio is bringing it all back. I hope the libs that are fleeing the cities now get woke to the lefts sacrifice of them.
She's likely a dumb libarts major who grew up being told we are in a "post history " period where everything will just revert to the way things were when she was born.
No one has to lift a finger. It's just the natural state of things. Lol
I saw Times Square and NYC back in 93'. Piss soaked, XXX theatres everywhere, garbage piled on the streets. Ugly, unhappy people everywhere. Was a total shit hole. Sounds like they're wanting to rebirth into that again.
That's stupid. We don't have enough poor in America, that's why we need to import them from other countries. If we had enough poor, we wouldn't be doing this. Obviously.
A guy on reddit literally tried telling me that his economics professor did an analysis on the economy of the USA and determined that corporate taxes should be raised to 70% in order to maximize tax revenue for the USA.
You're supposed to just say things and they become true. That's how it works. As soon as you start talking about facts everything falls apart...so don't do that.
They'll just demand bailouts from the state and federal government. They'll justify it by saying that they're too big to fail, and too important. Even though all their financial and media centralization will have disintegrated in the exodus.
Technically, she might be right. Well, once they find somebody to pay for it all...
A few years ago some libs floated the idea of making nyc a separate state. Everybody outside the city LOVED the idea. Then the people pushing it realized how much economic support comes from outside the five boroughs. Like most of it. nyc is a burden on the rest of the state and to the country.
One really good hurricane with a 20 foot or greater storm surge and the city becomes untenable. All that tunneling under the city will get flooded. Subways, utility corridors, centuries of long forgotten tunnels will get flooded with 100s of millions of gallons of Atlantic Ocean, and she doesn't like to give things back.
Africa is going to be better if than New York if the left keeps it up. Actually I want the left to just implement every idea they have in New York.
It will be an international poster child for failure
SALT was the most 4D move of them all. Dems can't understand indirect causes, especially if they take 3 or so years to show full affect. So, even though Cuomo will be partially right on blaming SALT, his constituents won't understand him.
(And SALT was just a way for some states to get their hands in the federal coffers. Makes sense to kick them out.)
Why are you giving oxygen to a socially useless professional race hustler ?
This cunt is a light-skinned Indian who manages to make a living writing "satirical" pieces complaining about how corporations aren't doing enough affirmative action.
Viruses like her thrive from getting attention she does not deserve.
Excuse me, but what the fuck? Cities have always been a meat grinder - difficult to establish yourself and sustain yourself with a lack of community and higher costs of living.
Oh, wait, I forgot, these type of people think that we should hand out free shit, and since cities have more people, they have more shit to give.
Until it runs out and you end up like San Francisco or worse.
Excuse me, but what the fuck? Cities have always been a meat grinder - difficult to establish yourself and sustain yourself with a lack of community and higher costs of living.
Yes! Living in a big city is Hell on fucking Earth. You don't know your neighbors, there's no sense of community. You are a cog in a machine. Fuck that way of life. I just want Mayberry.
The rich still have Mayberry. They know their neighbors even when living in the city. I walked in their parts of the city. They took our Mayberry life and kept their own.
I grew up in NYC. As a kid, I remember the place when it was dangerous, dirty, and shitty. I was in high school during the Dinkins years when there were increasingly aggressive homeless people on EVERY block. It was bearable back then, because in spite of the shittiness, there were fascinating people who lived there. As a young adult, I loved being able to walk into a bar, sit down, and talk to whoever was drinking. You'd meet the most fascinating people with a wide range of incredible jobs. There was always something to learn. Then the new generation moved in.
Now, when you walk into a bar in NYC (which you probably can't now anyway), you're going to talk to some low IQ wannabe Cardashian who somehow fumbles their way though a $120k a year job doing nothing, creating nothing, never growing mentally beyond the age of about 14.
A lot of the interesting old architecture is gone; torn down in favor of glass monstrosities that serve as dwellings for the vapid wastes of space who have taken over the city.
In spite of Sharpton's rabble rousing, there was a lot more racial harmony in the NYC I grew up in. My friends were of all colors, religions, and backgrounds. Now, the city feels segregated; rich stuck up white people thumbing their noses at the blacks and hispanics who are relegated to the public housing a few blocks away, if they can even get in there.
The people who worked for a living all seem to be gone. Many of the NYC police went from being worthy of respect to being an over sensitivity-trained diversity hire laden joke, worthy of the disdain of any real New Yorker who works for a living.
The old NYC could come back from something like this, because it had a solid foundation. That foundation has eroded so badly that it is almost non-existent at this point. Couple that with the bandwidth that allows us to work from anywhere and that's the final nail in the coffin.
NYC is gone for decades and will look more like Detroit every day until it's inevitable collapse. Only then, MAYBE, will there be a resurgence.
some low IQ wannabe Cardashian who somehow fumbles their way though a $120k a year job doing nothing, creating nothing, never growing mentally beyond the age of about 14.
I used to live in the Bay Area and that description hits me deep. The west coast still has fewer fashiony Kardashiite types (excluding LA of course), and in Silicon Valley, there are at least some fraction of engineers who are in fact making something that might have value. But still, everyone is just a well paid college kid who laughs about "adulting" at their friend's MCU viewing marathon.
I'm not a big reader but been going through atlas shrugged and this is straight out of the book. People talking about how prosperity will come from giving charity to those who can contribute nothing taken from those who barely have anything. Moronic.
The rich are moving out. She is right about that. But the being reborn part is not happening. Why would it? What advantage does someone have living in NYC now that the "rich" corps and people are out?
Sure maybe the apartments are cheaper a little bit - maybe commercial real estate is cheaper. But its not an advantage compared to other places. NYC did well because of the amount of rich intelligent ambitious people living there. The people were the greatest resource.
It's like that anywhere. It's the people really - not the place. So let DeBlasio gobble up resources at low prices. Its not going to work. Those places only have value because of the people that used to live in NYC and the people that used to go to NYC.
The left does not REALLY know how the world works and that's why they end up with egg on their faces all the time. The Left has mostly trained on destroying the good - and they are unfortunately very effective at that. It's easy to tear down - its hard to build up.
God I hope you are right. I really do, my life fell apart a few years back and I became homeless. I set my sites on the big apple for the opportunity it could afford me, I didn't have anything else so this city was all I had. Just as I was getting back on my feet, a roof over my head and good food in my belly, just when I was thinking that I would never go hungry again it all got shut down.
I came here for the open mic nights, the theatrical jobs, the acting jobs, the voice acting jobs all of it. All for it to fall apart just when I was ready to start fighting for my slice of the american dream.
It would really suck for me if I wake up tomorrow in the new Detroit.
Not impossible, my little dimple-cheeked dummy! But impossible with people like you calling any shots.
I do believe that a big problem with big cities is that income disparity leads to a lot of social unrest. I'm talking disparity like 100,000 idiots earning $400K for manipulating stocks, unions making $200K for not working, all while a barber and a policeman is getting regulated into the ground. That kind of manipulation is only possible once a city gets big enough that no one knows nothing anymore.
However, when a deblasio gets in charge, he thinks a great gesture is to move bums into a 5-star hotels, as if 5-star hotels just magically happen and the "rich" are hoarding them.
Once the rich are gone, close the bridges and tunnels and ports. They can then charge admission to get back onto Manhattan to watch the next Broadway shitshow.
I live in nyc. What the fuck is this women talking about. Place looks Iike a escape from NY!!! Its becoming a shit hole so fast. If its not already!! Tell her to get out of her uber and try the subway system!! Good luck
The "we're better off without them" is usually what some bitter twat says about her ex-boyfriend who was tired of dealing with their shit... right before she pulls on a pussy hat over some sort of blue/green hair, as her 13 cats crawl off her lap.
(Reversal the roles to ladies, there's dudes like this too).
Six months after this, the column will be about how "the parks" are in need of help. Yeah, because that's what these "rich" people do...pay for parks you can play in.
The Covid Terror by DeBlasio and Cuomo is forcing prices down so they and their friends can create huge consortiums/NGOs and own all of the valuable real estate.
NYC isn't going anywhere-it is an entrepot. There arent that many harbor cities in
America that can handle the amount of shipping.
i wonder if it's coincidental how soros just shifted a bunch of money into a real estate investment fund and two banks with business financing real estate deals.
Well lets be honest shes not wrong it will become affordable to all after everyone that can leaves because of the rampant crime, defunded police, and absolute desolate buildings from corporations and wealthier people leave along with their tax money
Cool story lady! Let me know how it works out dividing the tax burden on the remaining people. You did use the word affordable, but I'm not sure how you can discount your taxes. It wasn't the rich using them.
Just left the suburb of NY that literally touches the Bronx. Moved completely out of state. I drove into Manhattan all the time. The problem isn’t exactly that the city is turning to shit. COVId has forced the city to collapse. People aren’t in the streets. There is nothing to fucking do. People pay a lot to live there to have access to anything you want to do. There is nothing you’re allowed to do. No food, haircuts, gyms, parks, pools, you can eat outside if it doesn’t rain. Congrats, if it’s not fucking 90 or 30 degrees out, that seems decent but it fucking sucks. Soon every fucking city pigeon will be over your plate. No one wants to live in a god damn 4000 dollar concrete box with nowhere to go. You’re in prison with all the other lunatics. Everyone is getting the fuck out. What is hysterical is that everyone in the city is moving to the county next door. THE WHOLE TRI STATE AREA IS SUPPORTED BY MANHATTAN. when the city fails so does every fucking thing around it. CT NY and NJ are completely fucked. Most of the states revenue alone comes from NYC. Holy fucking stupid the Left has literally destroyed itself Donald Trump is the greatest man ever for doing this. This lady is dumb as the fucking floor she walks on. Enjoy Baghdad NY. It’ll be there soon.
Name a super metro area, lacking affluent people that isn't rife with problems.
Name one.
Here in OC/LA, the break point for 'decent place to live' seems to be about when average home values are over $1M.
My parents just sold their home for $800k and moved up for exactly the reason that they felt the neighborhood went to shit, and was only going to get worse from there.
Can you non-CA pedes even imagine living in an (old, non-luxurious) home worth $800k and still having homeless on every corner, shit on the streets, rampant theft, numerous local gangs etc?
If this is NY's stance, it's going to look like "Escape from New York" in 80 years.
Was talking with my uncle about this- I cannot see them re-electing another R given the state of the left.
It’s so bad those that would champion that cause are bailing rather than attempting to salvage it.
Let it rot.
Let's be honest ----> "Reborn" means Democrat Shithole Incoming. Exactly what they want.
Detroit is very affordable now under a half century of DNC rule.
Acres of razed land available for pennies on the dollar! Just be sure to bring your vest.
You can get as many houses as you want for$5k in almost any Democrat controlled shit hole
My monthly mortgage payment in bay area for little single-family home is well over $5k
pepeHands
Sell & move.
Why are you still there? Can't your skills be plied in other areas of the US?
With $30,000 in back property taxes on each 50x100 foot lot.
EDIT: and $3000 in past due water and sewer charges.
The up front costs are cheap, but the recurring fees will kill you.
High property taxes, water bills and insurance. Public schools and services are useless. The roads are terrible even though they're always under construction. Grocery stores that sell anything besides liquor and snack food are only located in the suburbs.
New York is a lot more dependent on wealthy residents than San Fran. This once wonderful city will go down faster than Heels Up Harris on Willie Brown.
Wow! That escalated quickly.
We should relocate the refugees that were sent to middle America to NY. All from Idaho, Minnesota, Maine, Colorado etc.
If we can't repatriate them back to their home countries, NYC will do.
That sounds like some sci-fi movie I remember seeing back in the '80s ... what was the name of it again?
It'll become a terrorist city. Sounds awful. Glad I have a lot of ammo.
The DNC won't be happy until NYC is like Kowloon the walled city was.
I don't think they really want anything. It's my honest belief that they think they will get a utopia rather than the shit hole they will create.
I saw an interview where a black lady was shown what the Sanders plan would cost. She got pissed off, I want the FREE medicare. I don't want to pay for it! Also my kids need the free college too.
Yes, rich people MUST pay for all her needs.
Those rich people being, ANYONE that has a job and makes money by their own efforts and abilities.
YAY, EQUALITY FOR ALL.
NYC was a shit hole with rich people, without rich people wouldn't it become even shittier?
Just give it another ten years
It needs to rot as an example to the rest of the country that socialists destroy everything good capitalists make.
The white flight out of the cities in the 60's & 70's to the suburbs is what doomed the cities like NYC for decades and just when whites finally felt NYC and other cities were safe again the libs pulled the rug out from them yet again.

White flight is the name, but it’s a myth partly.
The reality is everyone who could left. Rich black people left, Asians left, Latinos left.
The left wants people to believe it was due to racism. The reality it was due to the rulers of the left, who are more like the Huns.

Unfortunately the conservative, middle class demographic of the outter boroughs isnt there anymore and they were the reason Rudy got voted in.
Middle class in NYC flew out to the island or upstate years ago. Its probably gonna be a really long time before NYC sees another GOP mayor.
... but with no tax base to take care of the people that are left?
Think of the social programs!
Wait until they find out the Poors don’t contribute to their amazing programs. They only consume
That's stupid. We don't have enough poor in America, that's why we need to import them from other countries. If we had enough poor, we wouldn't be doing this. Obviously.
Obviously poor illegals pay more taxes than middle class citizens
But, but, but they promised it would be "Affordable" (They said with an 80% tax rate)
Mass starvation. The rats will eat the dead.
Just raise taxes more! That'll make up the losses! And slap another buck on cigarettes, gas, and liquor! And more tolls!
Then we'll be rich!.. /s
A guy on reddit literally tried telling me that his economics professor did an analysis on the economy of the USA and determined that corporate taxes should be raised to 70% in order to maximize tax revenue for the USA.
lol
That’s why no country does it....
Corporate taxes are considered a regressive tax. It mostly hurts those who are small and medium sized.
Corporate taxes are just another business expense.
The customers pay the tax, in the form of higher prices.
You aren't thinking like a Leftist here.
You're supposed to just say things and they become true. That's how it works. As soon as you start talking about facts everything falls apart...so don't do that.
When facts start to happen that disprove your logic, just say, "Well, that's a conversation for later..."
I choose TRUTH over FACTS!
We'll put giant windmills on all the skyscrapers and power the country...see not that hard Comrades
They'll just demand bailouts from the state and federal government. They'll justify it by saying that they're too big to fail, and too important. Even though all their financial and media centralization will have disintegrated in the exodus.
Technically, she might be right. Well, once they find somebody to pay for it all...

Time to fix that.
They would NEVER do that because you'd have a bright shiny new red state with what was left after NYC was removed.
That's the consensus opinion. I like the idea myself.
Every Upstaters dream is to have NYC cut off into its own separate state, or slide into the Atlantic Ocean, either way works for me.
One really good hurricane with a 20 foot or greater storm surge and the city becomes untenable. All that tunneling under the city will get flooded. Subways, utility corridors, centuries of long forgotten tunnels will get flooded with 100s of millions of gallons of Atlantic Ocean, and she doesn't like to give things back.
Let's hope.
You know where there are even less rich people and is more affordable....
Africa
Africa is going to be better if than New York if the left keeps it up. Actually I want the left to just implement every idea they have in New York. It will be an international poster child for failure
I'd rather live in many places in Africa over NYC.
How long until NY demands federal aid
They already are
Member when New York was begging for money while paying for healthcare and legal assistance for illegal immigrants?
‘Sanctuary’ Cities That Rejected Federal Law Are Now Pleading For Federal Help
Every single press conference that Andy gives is trashing Trump and then begging for Fed money and blaming SALT for every one of his state's woes.
SALT was the most 4D move of them all. Dems can't understand indirect causes, especially if they take 3 or so years to show full affect. So, even though Cuomo will be partially right on blaming SALT, his constituents won't understand him.
(And SALT was just a way for some states to get their hands in the federal coffers. Makes sense to kick them out.)
"Demand." Lol
I got your "demands" right here, Cuomo!
hopefully she'll get redpilled by a violent jogger.
She’ll get mostly peaceful raped.
Fiery but mostly peaceful
Forceful but mostly consensual sex.
She's the kind of person who would get gang raped but not report it because they are minorities and she doesn't want to reinforce white supremacy.
😂
Not sure where she was born but she was educated in Britain.
Thanks a lot, chaps.

Plenty of free shit in San Francisco
Lots of free needles too
More affordable? I don’t doubt that. As long as you can afford a few random gunshots and rape attempts.
Salted dirt and rubble are WAY more affordable than condos, that's a good point.
Never heard of her but I'll definitely trust her opinion on all things now.
Why do I get the impression you answer all those dnc texts with "Count me in"?
I mean if they ask you to phone bank, you should definitely take them up on it.
Whoosh?
Too bad you've run out of other peoples' money...

My parents just sold their home for $800k and moved up for exactly the reason that they felt the neighborhood went to shit, and was only going to get worse from there.
Can you non-CA pedes even imagine living in an (old, non-luxurious) home worth $800k and still having homeless on every corner, shit on the streets, rampant theft, numerous local gangs etc?
If this is NY's stance, it's going to look like "Escape from New York" in 80 years.
