NY gov cries about Tax reform instead of cutting his own - StLucieBengal - 12-29-2017 https://www.wsj.com/articles/andrew-cuomos-tax-lament-1514500689 Would have preferred a flat tax of 15% across the board but the good thing about this trump tax reform is that states will now he held accountable for their outrageous tax rates. This should force them to elect more candidates focused on reasonable tax plans. Which is a positive.

Probably not as it might be. https://verdict.justia.com/2017/12/27/new-tax-law-punishes-blue-states-constitutional The hard part would be proving the GOP did it on purpose...as opposed to accidentally harming only blue state. RE: NY gov cries about Tax reform instead of cutting his own - BmorePat87 - 01-04-2018 Damn those blue states and their high taxes providing better schools and attracting better jobs. I can't believe they actually give more to the federal government than they take.

I can't believe they actually give more to the federal government than they take. I know! Who do these states think they are, providing services to their citizenry at the state level instead of relying on the big federal government to take care of their problems for them? We certainly should not be incentivizing these states to take care of problems in a manner that is likely to be more effective and efficient for the population within their borders because they know better than the federal government does. And... Oh, hell, I'm done trying to point out the ridiculousness of people wanting to punish states for being more self-reliant while bitching about an oversized federal government.

Well, sure, considering their high state & local taxes are subsidized by everyone else. Instead of higher transfers payments it just comes off the top via higher deductions for SALT.

Well hell I'm going to have to start informing people that this new limit only applies to blue state Hillary voters.

I'm just saying he didn't make it up. There's a basis for the statement.
