Opinion Editorial by Kevin Wang.
Between the Rockstar Chris Christie is, even so the BridgeGate Scandal, and the Gun Controlling Andrew Cuomo. I personally find myself more agreeing with Cuomo than with Christie, as a person who is a Conservative Republican, even so I STRONGLY disagree with his NY SAFE act, but I don't find myself having a battle of opinions with him anytime soon. I think the reason I won't have a beef is because Cuomo is a forward thinking person who has the right social liberal mindset and right conservative financial mindset and I personally like his ways of governing based on giving Upstate NY and Downstate NY a fair balance. Western NY and North Country definitely need the attention and the plans for those areas are amazing! I also like how Buffalo is getting a revitalization, I think we should have our OWN Charlotte, NC. Buffalo, NY shall rise!
After watching the rest of the State of State 2014 Address, I give Governor Andrew Cuomo a positive rating and outlook. I also hope Albany gives more control over NYC since it would also help NYC continue become world class. I also see NYS gets more solid outlooks in places like Long Island, Westchester and the Hudson Valley, unfortunately I haven't seen NYS beyond the Downstate so I couldn't give a full review. However news seems positive in the Upstate Regions as well, especially since the only town I went to in "true" Upstate - Kingston, NY seems like they have added many new businesses and it's great to see businesses grow in this great State.
I also see that there are plans laid out for reasonable Local Government Consolidation, this is definitely needed since it will help communities and local businesses grow and attract more people AWAY from Ohio, Vermont, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine, currently Upstate is not attracting enough people, but this will change. In addition, I cannot wait to see LaGuardia Airport and John F. Kennedy Airport to modernize. I have seen San Francisco International, I have seen Chicago O'Hare, I have seen Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson, Toronto Pearson, Boston Logan and much more and this will help revitalize beyond just the airport but it's locality as well. This may indeed get my vote for Gov. Cuomo next time around since I think he know what he is doing, and this growth will help this state step into the next decades to come.
