Often wondered why SI is part of NY. It is physically closer and has more bridges with NJ. Has SI ever tried to secede? Taxes would probably be less. Would NYC let them go? Does SI prefer NY over NJ?NYBravest82 said:Bottom line is, we on this island need more coverage, its been said over and over. Last nights state of the city cemented it even further, city government doesn't care about Staten Island. We barely got a mention, yet Brooklyn and Queens get a trolley. We have to hike all over on one train line and countless busses slammed in traffic. This island need more infrastructure attention.
