The Battle lines have already been drawn...and breached. The NYPD is now spying on NJ college Campuses... While I don't want NYC to loose power on the Global scene it needs to share some of the jobs.... Outside of NYC , its every city for itself , fighting like wild animals trying to lure any expanding corporate jobs. Its made this regions economy very weak , instead of powerful. Every city should have a healthy economy , with NYC having the powerhouse that drives the other cities. Instead NYC controls and hogs everything and you have cities like Newark , Elizabeth and Yonkers struggling to get by.
