How F**ked Up Is Albany??

This f**ked up: California has 33.8 million people and a $1.9 trillion economy, New York has 18.9 million people and a $1.1 trillion economy. California's budget is $85 billion (an amount that it struggles mightily to come even close to covering). So, with an economy almost 40% smaller and just over half the people of a notoriously profligate California, what would you expect New York state's budget to be? $50 billion? $60 billion? Maybe $70 billion? Nope. Try $132 billion. Andy Cuomo sliced $2 billion and he's some sort of bloody hero to taxpayers and villain to all the union goons. F**ked up, I tell ya'.
