I was wondering if the lefty cheerleader trolls here on ET are aware that the great blue State New York takes in more immigrants from other countries and its taxes and leftist policies lead to the greatest migration of US citizens out of New York. Foreigner in, U.S. citizens out. This is the same policy California seems to be following. So these states bring in immigrants tax takers to replace citizens tax payers. How long can this go on until we stop these insane immigration policies? http://www.fox5ny.com/news/cuomo-weather-ny-population-decline ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo blamed the upstate weather for prompting New Yorkers to flee to other states. Cuomo told reporters Tuesday that while job losses and high taxes once drove people to leave New York, his administration has ended that trend and improved the local economic situation. He said many of the New Yorkers leaving the state now are doing so for personal reasons or decisions that he called "climate based." The comments came after Cuomo's Republican challenger, Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro, said on Monday that Cuomo has failed to stem the number of New Yorkers leaving for states with lower taxes and more jobs. While New York continues to attract immigrants from other countries, a study last year found that it led the nation in net migration to other states.
I would also note the the studies which show that immigration costs the U.S. 300 billion annually on't include the new figure of 20 million illegal immigrants which Yale recently gave us. I would surmise there is a chance that 20 million is a low estimate.
