Will I Have To Move?

[Airedale]

According to my Governor I am an "Extreme Conservative" believing in traditional marriage, being against gun control and abortion. He has stated there is no place in New York for people like me.

I'd stay, just to piss him off

[Serk]

Who is John Galt?

I'd recommend moving.

The only way the takers will stop taking is when the makers leave or stop making, that's the only thing that will ever stop the parasites.

[hager the horrible]

Guess that means I can't move to there

[old2soon]

Ain't America great-NOW they tellin us where we can and can't live cause of our views on things!   Sumbitche's-now they wanna trample the rest of the Constitution!!   Man-twixt ya'll and caliphony-duh. RIDE SAFE.

Wish I could get out of this state and take my tax dollars with me.

[Paxton]

Perhaps it would help to get into "... a New York State of Mind."

Unfortunately, you are deep in one of the biggest Liberal Quarantine Zones...

Just a short drive to South Philly, no?

After the last two elections in my Dominon State, I am afraid VA will be added to that map.  Like many other places, we own a vast territory of counties, but the FSA and liberal North owns the election box.

Airedale;
If you decided to move out of NY State, I am curious, where would you choose to move?

[Airedale]

Were I to move my considerations along with politics would be taxes and weather. A place with warmer temperatures and less snow, good hunting and fishing a big plus. I have traveled through many states in the south and like them all. Tennessee and Kentucky were some of my favorites, Texas also would be a player. A small farm similar to the one I have here in NY in one of those states would suit me pretty well.

Just imagine what would happen if Christie, or any other Repub, would say:

"liberals do not belong in our state."

The coverage would dwarf the bridge scandal.

He would be hounded by the media and liberals until he had to resign.

The "inclusive", "tolerant" liberals, as they always tout themselves.

They are, unless someone disagrees with their ideas.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, prince andrew isn't much different from his father. So, New Yorkers knew what what they were voting for. But, New York has been a long time democratic domaine and its liberalism is growing. All one has to do is look at its debt to tell how it has been run.
I'm dug in so I'm probably not moving anytime soon. If I were to move it would probably be to the Florida keys, another liberal sanctuary. I like south east Texas, maybe I should look there.

living here wisconsin for the last (to god damn many) several years, i've noticed that under tommy thompson we had one of the highest tax rates, almost the highest in the nation!  we were number 3 under a republican governor.  we were behind new york and i think it was deleware (not sure, it was about 15 years ago)

now that we've got scott walker (another republican) our state has a surplus of several hundred million dollars!  and boy oh boy did the libertards go crazy over his initial spending cuts!  people were protesting day and night!!

[Skinhead]

Like wise in MI.  Our first republican governor in a long time and we now have a budget surplus.  Dems want to send it on roads and education.  They have already raised or gas taxes to cover the roads, what they need to do is get rid of the overweight MI freight trains ruining our roads.  as far as education goes, they have been throwing money down that hole for years and the quality of public education continues to decline.  Give our money back to us, let us spend it as we see fit.  Last time I checked , this was a relatively free country.

[Patrick]

New York is now over $300 billion in debt with no end in sight. I have no idea how it can dig its way out of this hole. I can't remember a year when our taxes haven't increased and I don't see our schools, roads or anything getting any better except for its welfare programs.

I FULLY understand having deep roots and it being difficult, to the point of impossible to leave, but, in a way staying is like being an enabler for a junkie. As long as good people stay in these places, you'll be supplying the funds and work to keep the junkies hooked on their addictions, and they won't start to get clean until their victims are no longer there for them to leech off of...

Thanks joe, the area I am looking at is the top west corner of South Carolina. My younger brother and his wife will be there in a few years if all goes right for them. I should be looking to buy land so I can build a house within 7-10 years from now. Unfortunately wife's job has us tied to ny for now.

There are all kinds of ads stating that NY is THE place to open a new business.
(I dont believe it.) Tax advantages and whatnot.
The country of Texas gets my vote.
Thats how they refer to it. "When are you leaving the country"?
I have all the requirements for Texas citizenship. Thats the next move.
Right now Arizona is good enough.
Could be more fishing though. 2 1/2 hr drive to get the boat wet.

Chasing the arms manufacturers out of the state doesn't seem like a good start.

Thats true. There were some great gun makers in this state that have gone OOB or have moved over the years. ATI, PTR, LaFever, Ithaca, Remington. I'm not far from the last two and that sure doesn't help out the local economy.
Its not just the gun makers that are being 'forced' out which has/causes many old/long time upstaters leaving as well. New York at one time lived up to its name, The Empire State. No longer though. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think so, I place the blame on democrat administrations with all their related agendas.

I found it very interesting, I just shipped 4 AR15 lower receivers back to ATI to be swapped out for the newer version, and the fact that I was shipping AR15's into New York caught my eye. So at least part of their operations are still behind the Iron Curtain...

I have a feeling that you won't be mailing anything to those addresses for much longer.


Oh, and, I forgot to stick this in the previous post. I'm one of those weirdo's that has a ' Repeal the SAFE ACT ' sign in my front yard. Its surprising the number of locals that have no idea what the SAFE ACT is. Its the new list of gun laws recently enacted hastily after the Newtown shooting. They are causing some extra problems in this state and was to be part of Cuomo's pitch for president in '16. Many feel he stepped on his dick and the resulting backlash has blown any chances he would have had.

[Airedale]

Don't know how much accuracy one can put into this but it does give some kind of idea where the folks that do move are heading off to. The north east does not appear to be very popular these days.

yeah, no good riding down here.

There was a press conference with the Spartanburg County Sheriff a few years ago where he encouraged folks to get their CWP since they can't be there to PREVENT the crime, just show up afterwards.

You see those commercials where you are ?  Yep, they're all over here. No taxes and/or utilities for 10 years. Great deal huh ?  The established business next door now has to make up up for it !  Typical of NY, this will probably [ surely] drive more companies out of state or OOB. Politicians are unbelievable in their stupidity.

And THERE NO GOOD ROADS in north GA or western NC. Not even worth coming to take a look.

[old2soon]

Yeah-scratch Missouri offin yer list to. Bad roads lousy weather hateful folks everywhere and every thing here is high dollar. Makes me wunder the WHY of me still bein here??  Things get to bad here I'm subject to go back to Texas-in spite of havin ex # 1 there.  RIDE SAFE.

Ignorance, separatist, intolerant, and just out and out stupidity, is what the, in thing is, for

New York. They can have the stink hole. The Governor has gone too far. The problem is he

does not even, know it.

Nazi's did the Jews the same way in WWII they were no longer welcome. Will history repeat itself.

You  have to wonder.

Hug who?

Charlie Christ was once our Republican governor.  He has since switched parties not once, not twice, but three times now.  Charlie aligns himself with whichever way the political winds blow.  He'll literally do or say anything to get himself elected.  He now wants to be our governor yet again....this time as a Democrat. 

Behold the hug(s)........

Family been here for over 150 yrs and perhaps more from one side

Aint moving from Ossining and aint selling the building in the Bronx either

Someone has to remain registered as a Democrat so he can vote against all the bozo's in the primaries.

Would not mind downsizing someday and getting land up near Ticonderoga NY

The whole triangle around TN/NC/SC/GA is full of terrible roads with ICE   egads

Looking forward to passing thru twice this year, once on the way back from GOTF and once for Inzane
