NCPR News - Is New York "Open for Business"? Kind of.

      Despite the PR campaign, New York State is still struggling with its national image as being hostile to business. CNBC ranks the Empire State 50th in business friendliness and 34th in overall business climate.

       Governor Cuomo says he doesn't deny that has been the image but says his administration gets it and is trying to change things.

That's not fair!
As long as you are a rich investor from out of town you can count on NYS governments coughing up a PILOT and giving it to you in a very business friendly way.

I noticed it is against the law for people under 17 to go to a tanning salon. Why isn't it against the law for them to go to the beach? Surly a day in the sun at Wescott adds up to a 20 minute tanning bed exposure. No?

And 8:38 shows us right there why NYS is such a backwards place to live. He wants another law telling people how to live. We certainly don't have enough of them.
