The State counts on the tax dollars from these bonuses to keep our entitlement driven State operating. The Wall Street slowdown hurts N.Y. more than it does other states. Just like the Govt. to paint someone as a bad guy when they get their piece of the action right off the top. I loved it when the oil companies were big villains over the price of gas when the Govt. was making more money off a gallon than the Oil companies were.
