NYers Fleeing

[gatomontes99]

Around 765,000 people of the 8.4 million residents who call New York City home are preparing to leave, with about 9% of New Yorkers sharing that they would “definitely” leave the city if Mamdani is elected the 111th mayor, the Daily Mail reported, citing a survey conducted by J.L. Partners.

The irony here is that those people could just vote against Mamdani and he'd lose. The last election only had like 1.5 million voters if memory serves.

It has been more than a couple of years.

Data shows New York City lost 352,100 residents, however, many of them did not move too far.

“Half of outgoing New Yorkers didn’t move very far: Data showed that approximately 161,400 of those 352,100 moved elsewhere within the state or out to New Jersey,” the study read.

Isn't that a bìtch.

NYC’s got their own Justin Trudeau! 😂

It’s going to be fun watching the gong show.  And you know just like Trudeau, he’ll spend a crap load of money, and leave everything worse than it was before he was elected/

Let us see how any of those that said they were fleeing actually leave.

HOURS you mean. Just seems like years to ultra stubborn blockheads.

Bring it on. I’m sure a lot of people would love to move into all those empty homes.

Not everything Mamdani says is completely crazy by European standards.

You act like this might be something occurring in the future. It has already been going on for years, no one is moving into those empty homes like you are trying to say here.

Have you ever lived in Europe? Not everybody considers support for child care an awful imposition in their lives. If we want more children we have to make bringing them up less expensive.

Reciting Pledges of Allegiance, teaching only self history and tongue bathing flags in not a 'freedom' the rest of the world embraces or desires.

Commercialized Patriotism is not brainwashed elsewhere.

Which is why European birth rates are going down?

Do you really believe that? Declining birth rates are a global phenomenon. One measure won’t change that.

Yes, it is a basic statistic that European birth rates are going down. You are on here pushing child care, using Europe as an example, as a solution to birth rates... but the data doesn't support that.

FYI I’m not claiming it’s a solution in itself, obviously. I don’t think anybody would claim it’s a simple cause and effect relationship. For example, better child care provision could be caused in part by declining birth rates as a response to that.

Now that your comment has been demonstrated to be provably wrong, you are backtracking. So... who knows what you are trying to claim now. So, what exactly is your claim about child care now, then, regarding increasing birth rates/more children?
