[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure, PP. NYC is not self-sustaining? San Francisco? I think urban areas are getting more wealthy by the year. But if you are right, maybe they sweeten the pot by paying taxes on the federal facilities as they do now.[/quote] No, NYC is not self-sustaining. It gets a ton of aid from New York State. NYS and the feds also kept the city afloat when it needed the bailout several decades ago. The Port Authority, which is a state agency operated jointly with New Jersey, also maintains NYC's airports, tunnels, most bridges, etc.[/quote]
