The state of New York has many problems, including drugs and a crime wave of never before seen proportions. But never fear, New York, your governor is on the job!

The state motto has apparently been changed from ‘Excelsior’ to ‘In the Nanny State We Trust!’ We think New Yorkers must have not gotten the memo.

Oh, wait we forgot cigarettes are evil!
Because Prohibition worked so well last time.

We understand Governor Hochul, you’ve decided tobacco is your white whale. We hope it goes better for you than it did for Ahab. Although for those of us on the outside looking in this is a valid point.

One has to wonder how much freedom lost is too much freedom lost. Has New York had enough? Only time will tell.
