Big city mayors all promised hope and change for inner-city Blacks. Forty years later and what has really changed? Cities have gotten worse. Wracked with crime and filth the cities hemmoraged it&#8217;s wealthier residents who fled for the relative safety of suburbs and further. Revenues tanked causing the government to raise taxes again which chased even more people away and drove revenues down even further&#8230;well, I&#8217;m sure you see the pattern here.<\/p>\n<p>The same thing happened in northeastern and states. It still breaks my heart to drive through western New York State and see miles of empty factories and parking lots sitting idle from the devastation that Mario Cuomo inflicted on a once prosperous rural New York. He welcomed formerly-migrant workers who picked the lush crop of fruit in the Fall, and enticed them to stay on with rich welfare checks. To pay for his social programs, his social justice, Cuomo raised taxes on businesses which simply pulled up stakes and moved south where States welcomed employers with lower taxes.<\/p>\n<p>That has played out across the northeast for decades now, and somehow, no one notices. The northeast liberals have devastated entire States and now they&#8217;re coming for your country. Where will businesses flee under an Obama government? Where will the wealthy take their money? It&#8217;s no longer a move across town to escape heavy taxes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the 1960s, the Democrats were somehow seen as the saviors of the poor, more specifically &hellip; <a title=\"Redistribution of misery\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=4466\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Redistribution of misery<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4466","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4466","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4466"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4466\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4466"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4466"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4466"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
