New York is in ruins.
HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!! How's that welfare state doing? What a great plan.
I don't know why I'm even bothering because you are a partisan moron, but NY is not a welfare state. We pay more into federal coffers than we take out. Louisiana, however, IS a welfare state - in fact , this is the case with almost ALL of the red states, if I am remembering correctly.

The Governor has a lot of dirt.

NY IS a welfare state. I don't care what they return to the fed, they have some of the highest taxes in the country and THAT is what makes them a welfare state. They are overtaxed and running a deficit over 8 billion.
That dribble the libs continually spout is vexing. Much of that so called welfare spending you refer to going to the states is military bases and other fed interests. Until there is a breakdown of not only what each state receives from the fed but ALSO where and why it is sent there your contentions mean nothing.

Seem like reasonable cuts to me. What say you?

Idle curiosity, at what point would you consider them in ruins?
Wow NY and CA are both disasters and what is the common thread between them?
Could it be....
DEMOCRATS!!!?
california has a repub governor.
nyc has a repub mayor
New York has become a miserable Third World H*ll Hole. The Democrats have decimated that once great state. But hey,people keep voting for Democrats so i guess they get what they deserve. Now the Dems are even pushing for a gigantic Mosque to be built on hallowed 911 ground. I suspect New York will resemble Londonistan in a few years. So yes,chaos and anarchy could very well be coming to New York. It wouldn't surprise me. All Third World H*ll Holes descend into chaos & anarchy eventually. WTG Dems!

That's a totally dishonest assessment of New York's situation. New York Republicans are just as much to blame as the Democrats. The Republicans controlled the State Senate up until 2009 for about 40 years. They also held the governor's office for 12 years up until 2007, so for more than a decade the Republicans controlled the top spot in the state and one legislative chamber. Despite that, taxes continued to rise, spending continued to rise, and entitlements continued to rise.
The federal gubmint isn't the only dispensary of social welfare....The State of New York has one of the greatest contraptions of socialistic redistributionist welfare state do-goodery in the nation.

yeah... we keep paying money that gets re-distributed to 'red states'.

Then why don't the people of New York vote for politicians to stop this if it's really happening? Personallly, I think it's ridiculous that any state should allow itself to be a piggy bank for it's neighbor. Here's something I found interesting about your claim when I looked for some corresponding data.The federal gubmint isn't the only dispensary of social welfare....The State of New York has one of the greatest contraptions of socialistic redistributionist welfare state do-goodery in the nation.
