    Because they are no where near the sea?

The reason they choose the desert is because the governments are well run , is probably a slap in the face to Buffalo & NYS saying thanks but no deal.
    It's not Buffalo's water to give.

    Jesus you must be single because no man could put up with someone who argues and just HAS to be right as much as you do.

    I've asked other people this question before so I'll ask you; You don't live in Buffalo, you don't like Buffalo. Why in the hell are you on this forum?
    Let me articulate this for you:
    "I'm not locked in here with them. They're locked in here with me!!"

    I'm not sure why you guys keep engaging with jennifer7. It just feeds the troll.
    Most of the stuff he posts is bull***** anyway.

    it's the Donald Trump way, WIN, WIN, WIN
    Things will get better in Buffalo & Erie County when they go bankrupt and have to break all the union contracts and start all over again and the way things are going there , It's coming soon Buffalo & Erie County is close to hitting rock bottom Once they bring salaries, benefits, & pension's down to national averages, you will be able to lower taxes. But their will be one county school district, one county Police Dept. one county professional paid fire dept, one county highway dept etc...

    Once the government get's restructured, You need to rebrand the region
    Maybe you name the Metro area New Amsterdam, (which was the original name of Buffalo)
    New Amsterdam Sabre's, New Amsterdam Convention Center, New Amsterdam/WNY region Airport
    I live in New Amsterdam NY, New Amsterdam Metro Police Dept. New Amsterdam Fire & Rescue
    New Amsterdam Medical Center, New Amsterdam School System. Just saying the new names alone you are already get a fresh feeling & a new image. Also you need strong leadership Ask local successful business people like Pegula to help find a Metro Manager and build a metro support team.

    That's the easy part, name it Lake City NY or something. Buffalo/Erie County cannot keep spending money like it's Dubai and have the economy of Erie County, There are massive rising costs coming with all future 1,000's & 1,000 of County, City, Town & School District employees retiring with there $100,000+ luxury pensions & fully paid medical insurance for life ,the $100,000+ buy outs of unused vacation/sick time. and then pay for all there new replacements, benefits, yearly longevity pay,luxury benefits. (family or the well connected need only apply) Where's all the money going to come from ? There next
    to no growth or private investment in Erie County. Same old same old and keep rising taxes ? Look at what damage that has already done to the local economy and the national image of Buffalo

    Speaking of Dubai, Buffalo should build a series of islands on Lake Erie for private mansions. They can then claim international waters so people who live there don't have to pay taxes. They will instead need to rent a helicopter to get to and from work....but they could commute to Buffalo or Toronto.

    Love it, I would say connect a bridge to the islands, but since they can't even build a New Peace Bridge (remember all those
    lovely pictures of what the Bridge would look like in the Buffalo News) and a draw/lift bridge to connect inner harbor to the out harbor (like they have in Chicago)

    No bridges. They should build a tunnel from Buffalo to Toronto..possibly add a stop for Hamilton. The tunnel should include 4 tracks for trains, 8 lanes for trucks and cars as well as a pedestrian/bike access level so people could walk/bike from Buffalo to Toronto. I think they could get all of the funding by speaking to Michelle Obama and spinning it as some type of health oriented program. Fat kids are bad.
