If NYC is "falling apart" under a liberal mayor why in hell is it so damn expensive to live there. Businesses do not run to a sinking ship and the big apple is definitely not sinking.
Right, so he had nothing to clean up. Meanwhile, Walker had to clean up a Democrat mess.
Pretty typical of the vapid thinking of the true believer. If your guy is in.........it was the previous guy's fault (if the previous guy was of the other party)
If the other guy is in it's his OWN fault and his nothing to do with the previous guy.

This post is an excellent example of liberal argumentation because it mixes up several incorrect statements to make one giant wrong post.
First sentence: he states that NYC can't be falling apart because it's so expensive to live there. I have no idea how that works. You mean, the sign of a "falling apart" city is that it gets really cheap? That's amazing.
Second sentence: he states that businesses do not run to a sinking ship and that the big apple is not sinking. Ignore that he just used false logic, since he used one false statement to prove another one, but the guy ignores that people are leaving NYC in droves. Now, you could say "yeah, but they're also going there, too!" Yeah, they are, but they're not the same people. In other words, it's not that one super-rich person is leaving NYC and is being replaced by an incoming super-rich person.
Like I said, if New York City is doing so great, then probably the New York Times could write a great article about it. I can't imagine that it would be difficult to research their own city, huh?

Not at all, I'm just being accurate. When Walker came into office, there were numerous problems identified and addressed by him. The entire state was turned into a microscope because he was enacting clear and specific conservative policies and liberals wanted to watch them fail and conservatives wanted to watch them succeed. You cannot argue that people were not focused on Wisconsin.
In contrast, did anyone EVER say anything about Minnesota? EVER? When's the last time you EVER heard anyone discuss Minnesota and the "dire straits" that it was in and how this guy was going to go all-out liberal to make it better? NEVER. You NEVER did. Hang on, let me repeat that. YOU NEVER DID. That's because this is retroactive cheerleading. The NYT is like "oh, hang on, one place in the country run by a Democrat that isn't a total shambles ...let's profile it!" Then it turns out that this guy was held back from his liberal policies ...BY DEMOCRATS THERE. But that's OK, because he's still a Democrat, so it's all good.
Three years ago, WI elected a Republican governor (Scott Walker) with a Republican Legislature pledged to implement the anti-tax, anti-union, and least-government approach.
MN elected a DFL governor (Mark Dayton) whose slogan was "tax the rich," and in 2012 it gave his DFL party control of the Legislature.
There was an article in The New York Times about this as well. A majority of Wisconsonites prefer fascists apparently and thus they will continue to suffer until they come to their senses.

You are absolutely right, business do not run to a sinking ship. Which explains why businesses are fleeing New York in droves. The reason New York is so expensive is entirely because of the fascist socialist/communist government the people of New York have elected. Obviously New Yorkers love misery.
Yeah, if you read what I wrote, it says that people both come and go to NYC, but they're not equivalent. An ultra-rich person will leave NYC and a middle-income person will move there. It's quite clear that rich people are fleeing NYC. Now, since your methodology of argumentation is apparently to purposefully not comprehend what people are saying, I'll add that there still are rich people in NYC. In other words, the fact that "rich people are fleeing NYC" does not mean that I'm saying they all left.
