If you can make it there...

You can make it anywhere....It's up to you NY, NY. Tada dumdeedum, tada dumdeedum...

Well, this song is taking on new meaning. I mean, how much more stress and penalties can be placed on people living and working in NY. After all, we are taxed at one of the highest rates in the country. It is incredibly expensive to live here.

Why on earth do we stay? Used to be there were incredible jobs. Now, not so much.
Used to be there were amazing services and cultural events/places. Now that will change. One of my friends told me their child is "wait listed" at their local public school because they have no room from all the banker's babes who can no longer pay the astronomical amounts to send their kids to private school.

If you can't even send your kid to public school, and housing is not super affordable and they will charge crazy penalties over certain salaries, and they will charge small and big business for the MTA shortfalls--

Hey wait a minute, why are we here?
