Many people think it is a right wing grift/meme to insult New York. Implying that businesses leave NYC because of bad governance and bad policy must be propaganda! Perhaps, in some cases, they're right. Here, what I'd like to do is walk you through what it is like to run a business in NYC from the perspective of the business owner. I will show you the experiences a small business owner experiences when dealing with the government in New York State and New York City. You can read my mail and listen to my phone calls, and decide what you think for yourself. Is it all propaganda, or is there some truth to it?
