New York uses a byzantine structure for its government. At the state level, it has an executive branch run by the governor, it has a judicial branch, and it has a legislative branch. However, in addition to the state budget like other states where the legislature votes the expenses and the executive branch spends money, the legislature also has slush funds which the legislators spend. New York does not have the clear cut separation of powers as exist in other states. In the local level, New York uses a bunch of different boards and agencies. Each one has its own budget and paid elected officials. Where other states would place all these decisions under either a county or city commission. These little groups each has its own taxing authority. No reason exists why a whole lot of that could not be combined under city or county government. Of course if that happened, a lot of bureaucrats might be put out of work. Many other politicians have their own slush funds.
