I'm almost on the idea NYC should be its own state.

Why? Pretty much every blue state is blue because of its blue cities, and pretty much every red state is red because there are more rural voters who overpower any blue cities in the state. New Orleans is a blue city in a very red state for example. Should we just split every city from their states? Also Long Island isn’t NYC lmao

We should be - then the rest of NYS will be begging us for all the money we give the rest of you. And LI isn’t part of NYC.
