Doc Brown Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 I don't gamble because the consequences could be disastrous, but you could get rich betting against the Bills in prime time, traveling to the West Coast to face the Chargers or Raiders, and home games against the Pats. 1

Wish this was legal during the 00’s. I’d be sitting on some nice change. Betting against the Bills was a safe bet.

Just seemed you were more unhappy with the state than most so maybe changing your own situation would be more feasible than changing the state as a whole. I’m just here reading football news. You brought your opinions on politics and your life situation into the thread on gambling.

It will be more like pocket-lining revenue. Yeah. That is what liberal socialist democracy thinking looks like.(they all fail eventually) They see this as a jobs program. The don't care that it will cost more to pay the salaries, health care, retirement etc etc.. of the bureaucracy hired to administrate this, then they take in, or, that it will eventually require a tax payer bailout into infinity. Liberals call it economic development. And love it. Conservatives call it wealth redistribution. And hate it.

NY State without NYC would have economic indicators in line with states like West Virginia and Mississippi. The “separatists” would be sorry if they got what they wish for. Considering WNY has the highest percentage of young college educated adults, I think if we would do fine with a new government, so long as they were willing to cut taxes AND social programs down to the norm.

The Cities carry the country. There wouldn't even be enough tax dollars in the country to provide infrastructure, etc... People forget it was the industrialized cities that subsidized things as basic as rural electrification. Funny how people think. But the 1200 in a small town all flip a switch to turn on lights, flush a toilet and possibly send their crap down a community sewer to be treated, have their trash hauled away, or jump in a car and zoom off to Walmart on a smooth, lit, plowed in winter, road... 1200 people spread out sparsely don't provide enough tax dollars to carry the load they are consuming. Funny how they think they do. Promo above was spot on. It's the exact opposite. The industrial city carries the modern conveniences that the country enjoys. Unless they want to go back to an agrarian, non-consumer way of life... They shouldn't be complaining.

The counties are mandated to provide the funds for those services, including Medicaid, for their own county. In other states, the taxes to support Medicaid are pooled statewide. If a county has a low tax base and a high Medicaid usage, property taxes will be high to close the gap. Your taxes in whatever county you live in don't pay for NYC Medicaid costs.

Wow, all I could find are numbers circa 2013, 90k ppl on Medicaid in Niagara county with a population of 212k. 42% of people in Niagara county are on medicaid? WTF. No wonder why the population is receding and taxes are going up... Edited May 15, 2018 by Infinitum
