#NewYork has paid more into the federal tax system that we have received for more than 30 yrs
Yet, when we were desperate & dying for supplies to protect our police, doctors, nurses, emts, firemen, essential workers, tRump & the GOP told us to f*ck off

And, when it came time to do the CARES Act Monetary distribution to help the hardest hit state in the country (thanks to them), tRump & the GOP told us to F*ck off again by given us the lowest amount
So #1 in cases & suffering

We came together as a State & did EVERYTHING that we were supposed to & could do to flatten the curve
We were lead by a strong, honest excellent governor
We did this to protect ourselves & to contain the spread so it did not get out of control in other parts of the country

It was & is the right thing to do even though we have been sh *t on by people in other states, the GOP & trump himself
Because that is who we are. We have banded together to survive the unthinkable before that no other area of this country has ever faced
So, we know we are

#NewYorkTough. We will survive & we will thrive. We are New York. If people think we have an attitude, well, too bad. We have earned it. Paid for it throughout our history w/ blood

The lifeline being offered to other states, such as Florida, Georgia, Colorado, Michigan, Maryland & the like while they are CHOOSING to go against all common sense & the basic laws of nature

It should be their problem. Not mine. Not the people of NYS or California or Washington where we took it seriously
I am tired of subsidizing stupidity.
We do it every year but this is too much to ask of any one
I call upon my fellow #NewYorkers

I say that we NOT pay the federal portion of our taxes.
Pay it to the State of New York.
Use it to help the economy that trump has left to die, just like he left us to die, recover.
Let Alabama, Ohio, & Montana fend for themselves.

They think they know so much more than those of us that have been through this, let them pay for it themselves
If you are set for a refund, then by all means file your fed taxes & get your money
They owe you that & so much more.
I hope that Californians will do the same.

It's time for us to stop purchasing items & doing business with companies who donate to tRump & the GOP
Not just the companies themselves, but if the CEOs, board members etc donate to either then those businesses should not get one red cent from us EVER

They support the administration that KNEW in NOVEMBER, did nothing &, in the case of NY, actively sought to harm us
I don't know about you but I don't feel the need to pay to be abused like this
