NY: Tax Capital of the World

Yay, we win!

No more economic growth!

I've said it multiple times before... soak the rich to pay for the "poor" unions, whose members can end up with more wealth than the folks who paid for them...

"This is advertised as a plan of "shared sacrifice," but the group that is most responsible for New York's budget woes, the all-powerful public employee unions, somehow walk out of this with a 3% pay increase. The state is receiving an estimated $10 billion in federal stimulus money, and Democrats are spending every cent while raising the state budget by 9%. Then they insist with a straight face that taxes are the only way to close the budget deficit."
