Thx for this great article. It really is eye opening. So instead of rejecting the leftist policies that have dominated and destroyed the state for decades causing businesses and wealth to flee in mass the people have chosen to double down. My family will be leaving and taking our high income jobs and businesses with us. Have Cuomo, AOC, Schumer or Deblasio learned how to print money yet? They will need that skill because real wealth is running out of NY. Personally, we will leave this state for the crooks and welfare addicts. When Carl Heastie is a "conservative" it's time to flee. BTW does anyone think he or anyone else in that position is less corrupt than Sheldon Silver? It's not the person it's the position, it breeds corruption and you literally cannot hold the position and be honest.

Great commentary. I'm actually a bit curious if or why we haven't seen official "left" caucuses formed in either the senate or assembly. I don't think it'd make a huge difference with legislating but would make it a bit clearer the power balance, cause Heastie already saw a 1/4 of the dems vote down the last budget and the handful of leftists added in 2020 will only make that a harder conference to wield.
