At some point our Big City dreams come face-to-face with our smallish mid-sized city realities. We are no longer a town of corporate headquarters (NY’s income and other taxes took care of that), or of entrepreneurial wealth (we chased them out of the State with our anti-business bureaucrats ranging from DEC to DOL to…well, you name it), or civic “can-do” pride (witness the endless squabbling over just about everything in this town). We are a shrinking city in an imploding Upstate NY economy with no light at the end of the tax-and-spend, highest in the nation taxes, let’s kill industry to save the planet tunnel. Give it up, Arnie. Or take your dreams and move to a growing economy like Texas or, well, pretty much anywhere other than NY, IL, CA or the other bankrupt states.
