The central facts of Nelson Rockefeller's time as Governor of New York were a massive increase in taxation and in State debt. The Wikipedia article is obsessed with details and almost ignores these central matters - the increase in taxation and debt. Sadly this is typical of Wikipedia articles - not seeing the wood for the trees.2A02:C7D:B5B8:DA00:5493:BB0E:8368:979F (talk) 10:31, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
