Spreading the Wealth


New York State government may claim to be pinched for money and taxpayers will feel the pinch in their wallet from the mounts of new taxes passed by New York State government controlled entirely by the Democrats, but that does not stop the Democratic majority in the Senate from spreading the largess around to each member.

The base salary of a New York State Legislator is $79,500, therefore the Democratic Senate majority of 32 members should cost New York taxpayers $2,544,000 but once they are finished spreading the wealth the number balloons to $3,178,000.

I suppose the GOP while in charge of the NYS senate never did that sort of stuff, right?

"Spread the Wealth" or spread the BS... there is little difference, if any.

Well, there is a difference. From now on we only have to blame one party, because one party owns everything, even us.

We voted for change. Let's see if we get any. There's no room to hide.

Anymore.
