And AOC kept Bezos out too.

New York is a Democrat ran, high tax shithole like California. You guys need to stop driving the rich people out.

Poor people certainly aren't going to pay for your Socialism.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Rich people aren't the only metric of a state's success.

Among U.S. States, New York’s Suicide Rate Is The Lowest. How’s That?

At first glance, the state doesn’t seem like an obvious candidate for the lowest rank. There’s New York City, all hustle and stress, tiny apartments and crowds of strangers. And upstate New York, often portrayed as bleak and cold, is famously disparaged in the Broadway musical “A Chorus Line” with the comment that “to commit suicide in Buffalo is redundant.”

Experts say there’s no easy explanation for the state’s lowest-in-the-nation rate. “I can’t tell you why,” said Dr. Jay Carruthers, a psychiatrist who is the director of suicide prevention at the New York State Office of Mental Health.

Guns And Urbanization Are Likely Factors

There’s no single answer, but a number of factors probably play a role, according to Carruthers and other experts on suicide.

Low rates of gun ownership are likely key. Guns are used in about half of suicide deaths, and having access to a gun triples the risk that someone will die by suicide, according to a study in the Annals of Internal Medicine. Because guns are so deadly, someone who attempts suicide with a gun will succeed about 85% of the time, compared with a 2% fatality rate if someone opts for pills, according to a study by researchers at the Harvard Injury Control Research Center.

Joe: GOP spent like 'drunken socialists' and ran up record debt. Now they refuse to pay for it.

After the Senate failed to pass a key procedural vote to fund the government and avert a shutdown, Joe Scarborough and Jonathan Lemire discuss the "hypocrisy" of every Republican who refused to vote for the measure. "They're telling Americans they're going to let the country default on its debt, which would be economically devastating, because they're not going to pay their own bill," Scarborough says.
