I also mentioned my old high school friends; all aged 30-31 who already left. They all (save one) took their prime work and creative years and family raising time to other states.
Why?
Very true, people that have the ability to move to another state do so for financial reasons, tough to buy a $400K 2 bedroom cape with $15K in taxes. Some have a good job and can afford it but some in good paying jobs move anyway because they feel they can do better elsewhere, not everyone has that option and some people like culture, environment, not always just about money.
That's the way it's been for the last 20 years, didn't just materialize under a democratic governor
New York's loss is Florida's gain. Hopefully all the liberals left in New York get to pay even more taxes to make up for all the tax revenue Cuomo just drove out of the state.

These kinds of incidents are so pathetic and boring.
Anyone who listens to the full in context words of the governor it becomes clear to anyone that Hannity is a liar and is pretending that the governor said something he didn't say.
This is yet another example of conservatives drifting away from reality and it is pitiful.
Remember the whole theme of the republican national convention was "you didn't build that"? They based their whole convention on a lie an easy to confirm lie, and they stuck with it.
I still don't think Democrats and most Americans have come to terms with how radical and hateful the conservative party has become.
Losing population and gaining population at a slower pace than the country as a whole are NOT the same thing.
True but in 1950, New York had more population than Texas, Florida, & Georgia combined. Now those states have 36 million more people than New York and almost triple the population of New York. What's driving people from New York?

Classic projection. Democrats and liberals are the most intolerant people on earth. Cuomo's extremist statement proved it, and your post underscores it.
Speaking of conventions, it was the Democrats that booed children when the boy scouts came on stage - not the Republicans. The Democrats also hissed at the notion of mentioning God at their convention. Democrats win the hateful troll contest and it isn't even close.

And? The population has grown from 1950 and we are migrating people so things aren't always going to stay the same. No one would be living in the northwest if it wasn't for migration.

So what is your response to Hannity saying he is outraged with high taxes and going to move right after his kid(s) go to college and he retires? That doesn't sound like much of a threat, sounds like pandering to his audience.

That is an opinion, but since it has no basis in reality whats the point?
Here is a hint compare the voters of both political parties and the elected officials of both political parties and tell me which one is more diverse.
See intolerant political parties are ones whose voters and elected officials are more monolithic.
Again of the two American political parties which one is closest to being monolithic?
And yet, Hannity isn't moving. He is just pandering to his audience.
That's entirely possible, but whether or not he would follow through isn't what I was commenting on. I was commenting on your post stating that he couldn't keep his job if he did move. You were demonstrably wrong about that.
no worse than the liberal freakizoids like alec Baldwin threatening to move to france if bush wins
or this from 2012
Actress Tina Fey promised that she would be “leaving earth” if Sarah Palin became the Vice President of the United States
"no worse than the liberal freakizoids like alec Baldwin threatening to move to france if bush wins."
Don't leave out Barbara Streisand.
