FIREWORKS!!! Ny needs jobs and tax revenue (and a little more freedom) more than ever before. Fireworks is the answer!!! I was surprised to hear on the radio the other day that there are only 5 states with fireworks bans. Tons of people in NY use fireworks but the state gets no revenue from it. People love to celebrate their freedom using fireworks so I guess it is fitting that a place like NY bans them lol. BUT NY almost never misses out on an opportunity to make money so why not sell them here with some stupid tax on them? It would mean more jobs too which is always good in many ways. Who is with me on this “NY stimulus plan”? ---
