New York State; A Prime Example of Democrat Policy

Joyner this morning [1], notes:

New York is trying to collect taxes from online retailers who ship goods to the state, even if they have no brick-and-mortar presence. Amazon is suing [2], claiming the law is unconstitutional.

[3]I tell him, in comments, there:

Of course all of this, leaves aside the issue of the high taxes in NY being why people are looking out of state for their purchases in the first place… as well as why retailers find it a better deal to leave NY and conduct business there by remote.

I LIVE in the Vampire state, and far as I am concerned, NY has nobody but itself to blame for it’s situation. This bit is simply making it worse.

They’ve still not figured out that the taxes are driving people away. Here in NY, the population outside NYC is falling, because of the taxes, most of which go to pay for the people INSIDE NYC, and I’m tempted to say most of the population growth there is illegals.
