new york is filthy, has some of the worst politicians, is right next to new jersey, is extremely expensive, has terrible traffic problems, and is statistically one of the most unhappy cities in the world
what about it is so great?
tall buildings? cool, i guess.
The food? You can find better food all over the country, and they wont charge you thirty dollars for three dollars worth of food. Maybe being from New Orleans has tainted me, because the food in new york was trash compared to what's here.
Lots of places to shop? You must be a girl. A man shops like this: grocery store for food when he's tired of eating the fish he's caught or the venison he's stored, gas station for gas, occasional trip to a mall to buy some clothes, and the gun store for ammo. I don't need to walk into 500 boutiques to see lace dresses and $300 jeans
maybe i'm missing something about New York. I was unimpressed.

The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the State.
