NY has double the budget of Florida with fewer people and it isn't remotely run as well. At some point people need to figure out that money is not the problem. The real issue here is that without those taxpayers it threatens Democrat grift.

Sadly, I'm going to have to interject to say that Florida bureaucracies aren't well run. Maybe compared to other states, it's "better," but we still have more than our fair share of wasted time and money.

That is an unbelievable level of tin-foil arrogance if I've ever seen it. Telling high net worth people that they have a duty to fund generous social programs in NY, and that other New Yorkers should recruit former New Yorkers to move back to NY and pay those stupidly high taxes.
Incredulous!
With leadership like her and Mamdani, NY is in for very rough times ahead. The obvious play is to reduce spending to align with your tax revenue, but they refuse to acknowledge that. Instead, it's "raise taxes... the wealthy aren't paying their fair share! Move back to NY and pay what you owe to society!"
Lol... good luck with that.

NYC has a larger budget than the entire state of Florida
Stuff like this is a major vulnerability for Democrats. There are a lot of liberals that really don't care about paying absurd amounts of taxes because they feel like there is some nobility in it. The problem is that when they see lower tax states with far better services and all the emphasis is on more taxes and not improving the services. Slowly a few of these folks are waking up (Elon was one but there are many others).Jon Stewart cringes in real time as a California Democrat responds to concerns about wasteful government spending.

Thanks to some kind and benevolent conservatives, I was able to learn what a computer is and type this out to you. I had to resist the urge to stop at a liquor store while sitting and learning, but I made it.
Anyway, back in 2022, you made comments where you… https://t.co/rrmN3lgebw

Your policies are radical.
Your taxes are unbearable.
Your leadership is tyrannical.
You even told New Yorkers to “head down to Florida where you belong.”
As Governor, the Free State of Florida will continue to lead with unapologetic conservatism. https://t.co/zJGDkQp19P

All bureaucracies are inherently inefficient. Florida does about as well as any US state though, especially when you look at things like disaster response and education rankings. If you are talking about having a line at the DMV or something I'm sure that sucks but places like California and NY have insane taxation and debt and their infrastructure is falling apart and the services are terrible.

I'm venting about a few agencies/departments that are ****ing around with my and my wife's money. Days or weeks behind in paying us, etc.

My daughter moved to Florida from Texas a little over a year ago and works in retail while waiting for her fianc to graduate. She just told me a couple days ago that she can't wait to move back to Texas. When asked what was so bad about Florida compared to Texas, she said definitively it was the people. More specifically, snowbirds from liberal New England states. Working in retail, she deals with a lot of these types and said they are obnoxious, entitled, and rude.
No real point to this anecdote, but I'm glad that Texas' snowbirds are mostly from the Midwest which isn't nearly as bad IMO than New England.
