		<description><![CDATA[Throughout human history human beings have demonstrated an enormous capacity for tolerating abuse and injustice imposed by various forms of rule and government. It is this capacity which explains (for me) how people can remain in states like CA and NY despite being treated like serfs and slaves who&#039;s only reason for existence is to satisfy the demands of their &#039;betters&#039; - academic elitists, government bureaucrats, vainglorious politicians, Wall Street Banksters, Chicago gangsters, media propagandists, etc. There is also the irrational expectation that the abuse and injustice will eventually cease, despite decades of evidence to the contrary. It&#039;s a phenomenon similar to what Jews experienced under Hitler: the idea that they were being systematically exterminated was too incomprehensible and despicable to accept. So, today successful people are being marched into socialist ovens yet they cannot believe or accept the true barbarity they are subjected to. Sometimes the people wake up and rebel but most of the time they endure their pain and pray that it will someday end. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This article is a great counterpoint to an ad that NY State is presently running on TV in New York, and which I saw ten minutes before reading the article. The ad touts NY State as a great place to do business. It claims falsely to &quot;cap&quot; taxes. It claims to be attracting businesses. It does not say how many businesses have left the state. Then comes Ronn&#039;s article. Thanks for keeping our feet on the ground and turning us away from the propaganda of Gov. Cuomo. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Please explain why he should, or should have to move in order to enjoy freedom in America. Run from bullies? One would be wise to do so, if possible, in countries like Cuba or Russia, but in America? Part of the American legacy is to stand your ground. Move? I don&#039;t think so. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since credit reporting agencies are not government agencies, trusting them should be in the eye of the beholder.  Using them as a sole screening means is pretty narrow minded.  There are all kinds of ways a credit score can be impacted that have nothing to do with a lack of personal responsibility.  Drug testing is another screen that can have a conflicted impact.  A better method would be limited employment terms.  A 30 day screening period would allow an employer to fill the position quickly with a means to legally toss out the non-performers or those who have proven to have lied on their application.  Follow that with a 90 day probationary period and follow that with a 12 month contract and any employer can regain the control they had before all this &quot;forced hiring&quot; crap came about.   
  
Forcing someone to hire a useless employee is as ridiculous as giving someone a loan for a house they can&#039;t possibly afford!

		<description><![CDATA[Interesting subject, careless composition.  Don&#039;t see how &quot;New York State&#8217;s Governor Andrew Cuomo extended tax cuts, hence increasing the income tax.&quot;  Don&#039;t tax cuts decrease taxes?  In the same paragraph are &quot;the recently passes sick leave bill&quot; and &quot;here comes more rules,&quot; blunders that a quick proofreading would catch. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Spider, you got that right! California is run by crazies for crazies who put them in office. Jerry Brown is still as kookie as when he was known in his prior governorship as &quot;Governor Moonbeam,&quot; for his bizarre socio-political  views. No Matter: Californians voted him back into office after a long hiatus. No wonder the state has been called &quot;the land of fruits and nuts&quot; since the 1950s. I should know; I was born and raised in California and have seen the changes. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have noticed an intense barrage of NY commercials on cable TV beginning this past week. All of them saying &quot;NY is working, creating 10&#039;s of thousands of new businesses&quot;. I was astounded the first time I saw the commercial. I am now curious as to what has prompted it? Because the NY business and personal climate is worse than ever, as far as I can see. ]]></description>
