You can't say the same thing about either
If you think NY is the only state that gives out food stamps and helps the poor, then it's obvious you haven't lived anywhere else than where you're currently living. It's very obvious you've never been here.
No, what makes a great state is the ability to give welfare to most of its citizens. Nothing like foodstamps and subsidized housing to say success like NY does
Which payed better, McDonalds or bussing tables at Chili's?

Where did I say that NY was the only state that did that?

Reading is fundamental, please try it some time
Referring to post 40:
"No, what makes a great state is the ability to give welfare to most of its citizens. Nothing like foodstamps and subsidized housing to say success like NY does"
If you thought other states do this, you would be mentioning them. I guess you're just singling out NY. I'm not surprised at all though.

Other states do it, but I felt it was right to mention the king of that practice and not the other states that are less known for it
Truth hurts, doesn't it?

Right, because NY is one of the poorest states in the country.
I work in a Title 1 school in Florida. ALL the kids here get free breakfasts. Last week they gave the kids 3 packages EACH of dried rice and bean to take home.
