New York has a giant tax problem its leaders don’t want to face


New York state’s income tax take is dropping rapidly, but its leaders don’t seem interested in truly facing the implications.
Projected income tax revenues for the year just dropped $2.3 billion, Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Comptroller Tom DiNapoli announced Monday — and that’s after falling $500 million in December.
Cuomo partly gets what’s going on: “‘Tax the rich! Tax the rich! Tax the rich!’ We did. Now, God forbid, the rich leave,” he said. He noted that the top 1 percent of New York earners provide 46 percent of the state’s personal income tax revenues, and cited anecdotal evidence that wealthy locals are heading for lower-tax states.
The gov blames President Trump and the new tax law’s $10,000 cap on state and local tax deduction. But the exodus started long before the SALT cap: For years, the Empire Center’s E.J. McMahon has cited census data showing New Yorkers fleeing to Florida, Arizona and other low-tax states.
Responsibly enough, Cuomo is talking about cutting back the $176 billion spending plan he released last month, calling the tax shortfall as “serious as a heart attack.”
But he’s not raising the issue of long-term reforms to address the problem — other than vowing to “fight the loss of the SALT deduction and do everything possible to protect taxpayers.” Everything, that is, except taxing them less so they don’t leave.
Senate Minority Leader John Flanagan suggests cutting business, energy and income taxes, as well as codifying the governor’s 2 percent spending cap into law. But Cuomo rejects that “New York government must get smaller” approach as only worsening the problem.
Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie, meanwhile, wants to see if the revenue loss is really a lasting change. Hey, it works for ostriches, right?
The Empire State is going to have to change, but its leaders plainly mean to get their kicking and screaming in first.
