2018 NY Governor's race: on Corporations


Marc Molinaro: Cut costs on home-grown businesses to increase job growth

Whether it's Main Street here or a larger business there, New York maintains the highest tax burden of any state in the nation and has among the most restrictive regulatory structures anywhere in the country. What we need to do is drive down costs on businesses. Instead of advertising in Texas about how wonderful it is to move a business to New York, drive down costs for existing NY businesses. Seventy percent of new jobs are created by businesses that already exist in your community.

Newly announced New York gubernatorial candidate Cynthia Nixon criticized Gov. Andrew Cuomo, her Democratic primary opponent, for favoring corporations and the rich over average New Yorkers. Nixon went on to criticize inequality in the state, which she blamed on policy choices like tax cuts for corporations and wealthier New Yorkers, and called out corruption in state government.
