Buffalo's Jim Ostrowski makes me feel a bit envious of NY residents today, as he revels in the fact that the state senate has remained deadlocked at 31-31 for three weeks now. This has already resulted in more than a billion dollars in saving for NY residents, as the government has been unable to pass new liberty-trampling taxes and laws.
I actually underestimated the amount of the gridlock tax cut. It’s way over a billion. NYC residents alone will be taxed $700 million more when the dirty deal is made for a 32nd vote.
Of course, given that I now live in Maryland, the least free state in this unholy union, it's really like I never even left the Empire State.
