LOL this state just gets better and better. I’m considering finishing school out of state at this point. It’s not the $25 but whole premise behind it. It costs WAY too much to live in a such a SHITTY state. Serious question though, does this apply to motorcycles also? Am I really gonna have to buy ONE freaking plate? So I can slap that onto my registration that’s due in April that they just RAISED recently? Cool. Very cool. ---

im not sure at what point we will have another Boston Tea Party, but it seems like NYS would be a great place to start. “no taxation without representation” used to mean something, so much so that people went to war for it. now we just sit back and bitch THEN write the check anyway. ---

No i put in the right sale price, the dmv employee/teller put in the wrong amount on the system as only 10% of that it actually cost. Now they say i owe them $999 in taxes, penalty interest and all that shit…ill ket you know how it goes when iget off the phone with the dmv lol. > [@longuyen88](#): > > Do you drive the Grand Am? What happens when you get pulled over in it? car gets impounded…you go get the car reigster/title/impound fee etc. and then you get the car back. ---

LOL, if you did that here, they would ticket you for unlawful discharge of a firearm, littering, destruction of government property, driving without plates, vandalism, unlawful gathering, failing to obey an officer of the law, and just for good luck, they would throw a speed contest ticket in there… maybe a parking in handicapped ticket too. :banghead: The shit in this state NEEDS TO STOP. ---

I do agree with the election point, but there would be issues no matter which pile of shit was elected. I can’t see voting for the lesser of the evils.

Well, when it comes to voting theres not much choice other than which one is less of an asshole. As far as someone young and ambitious getting in? Yea, unless you convince the current politicians that youll do things their way it just wont happen. ---

Start with a small group of people… the general public is for the most part a bunch of lemings. If they see a crowd moving passed their house they will want to jump in, eventually forming into an even larger crowd. People here need to learn from the Europeans on how to get the attention of the government. Gather as masses and start getting your point across. ---

Or, just another tax piled on by the NY Democrats you idiots voted for.
