>I just don’t get how people put up with this They don't. In the past couple of years staples of the Northeast such as Wawa and Yuengling can be found in places as far away as Florida. The reason for this is because of the number of people leaving the Northeast due to the fiscal pressures that you describe. Also, NJ is just as bad as NY when it comes to taxes. My parents live in Central Jersey, and their property taxes are insane.
