New York's affordability crisis is forcing working families and seniors out of the communities they've called home for decades, as rising costs, higher taxes, and years of political decisions continue to reshape the state's future. Mike Slater sits down with Councilwoman Vickie Paladino to examine why so many believe these policies have made New York increasingly unaffordable.
