And this phatphuq made a Mammon-sized fortune from us New Yorkers. John Catsimatidis would not be welcome in his home country of Greece which demonstrates much more generosity and compassion towards poor and vulnerable people and has universal healthcare for all its residents.

Good riddance to bad rubbish. Don't let the door hit your fat superrich butt as you slink away, Jabba.

Businesses, as well as well as the wealthy relocating to a low tax and more business friendly state like FL, or TX is a smart move IMO.

Billionaires have no right to exist. Like slaveholders.
