When I lived in New York - I was all for the Northeast or just New York, seceding from the Union. New Yorkers pay WAY more in federal tax revenue than they ever see back. But everyone else in this country hates New Yorkers - call us elites, communists, whatever. So I've always been like yeah let's blow this taco stand. <br /><br />Having dinner with friends and the usual conversation comes up about how no one appreciates all that we New Yorkers do for this country not to mention the world - and then I realize where I'm currently living and all of a sudden I don't want NY to leave the Union any more. All that to say - I can understand how someone could not like America/Americans but love New York/New Yorkers. I love both but I'm as American as a Chevy Nova.Andrea Japzonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10083154272957201660noreply@blogger.com
