In case you missed it, thanks to the 2020 census, New York is down a congressional seat.
Or, as “Daily Show” host Trevor Noah puts it, New York got “screwed out of a House seat.” Which basically puts us back in the 1930s:
The Daily Show ~ The 2020 Census: New York gets screwed out of a House seat, Texas is the big winner, and we’re back in the 1930s.

Aldous Huxley's Ghost™ ~ You complain about Wyoming having too many representatives when they have so few people, but when New York loses a Wyoming-sized chunk of people who decide places like Texas are better, you whine they lost the associated representative.
But hey, that's comedy today!
Stephen L. Miller ~ People fleeing over-expensive over-taxed Democrat cities and states is Jim Crow.
Aldous Huxley's Ghost™ ~ The Daily Show: Democrat propaganda masquerading as comedy, whining because New York lost a whole seat's worth of people deserting to places like Texas.
Ragnar Danneskjöld ~ “NY got screwed” aka its policies are so shitty people left in droves.
David Burge ~ Maybe congress needs to pass a Fugitive New Yorker Act to return them to where they'll be happy.
You mean "happily oppressed."
David Burge ~ On the one hand, if the Census had counted 89 more New Yorkers last year they wouldn't have lost a congressional seat; on the other hand, if they had counted New Yorkers this year, they would have lost 2 congressional seats.
Good point.
David Burge ~ Instead of bitching about the unfairness of losing a congressional seat, I dunno, maybe start thinking about why residents are fleeing your state like it's on fire.
Josemaría Piulada ~ “I’m not gonna ask why people left New York. I’m just gonna bitch about the consequences.”
I got your #Unity right here ~ You didn't get screwed out of anything. Americans are free to live wherever they want. If you want them to come back to New York, STOP SUCKING.
The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. ~ D.H. Lawrence
