I think it fits here...

"Jamie" Dimon, the JPDimonChase boss, positing on why moneyed people, why financial firms, are joining manufacturers and blue-collar workers in leaving the Vampire State.

"Highest individual taxes, highest estate taxes, highest corporate taxes, anti-business sentiment.""When I grew up as a kid in New York City, there were 120 of the Fortune 500 headquarters there. In the 1970s, 60 of the 120 left, including Exxon, GE, IBM, Union Carbide. They're all going to Texas."



Anyone who can link up an XTwit video post, feel free. I'm tired of having to relearn everything, every time the Zoom Indians make coding changes.

EDIT: It embedded itself!

Point in fact... she didn't just decide to comment "The DOW is over 50,000!" in front of Congress.

Someone told her to do that! The message was broadcast all over the interwebs about how stupid she appeared.

Message delivered!

What does it say about her, that she takes unethical, probably-unlawful, instructions?

What does an honorable man (yeah, it takes a MAN, with TESTOSTERONE, to do it, generally) when given an unethical, lawless, just-plain-wrong instruction he (yeah, HE) disagrees with?

He gets out. This bimbo has a law degree; she won't be working at the strip club.

"Call New York State Department of Insurance"...

That's it right there.

She's living in the wrong state. You're better off UNEMPLOYED in Flyover Country than you are, working a good job in the Vampire State.

I know, I've done both. My experience with utilities in Gnu Yark, and the property taxes on my hovel, were not fun. That, while making $120k a year.

But I survived, from 2017 to 2019, prior to eligibility for my ray-rode pension...by driving for Uber and working odd jobs, here. Wasn't stress-free, but I made it.
