The so called rich they go after generally aren\u2019t that rich, and those that are can and do move elsewhere. I\u2019m not going to talk about all the states seeing this happen, just one and this one has a Republican governor. I speak of New Jersey of course, governed by the Great White Jersey Rino with a legislature made up of Progressive Liberal Idiots. They state is pretty much broke and the legislatures answer is \u201cRAISE TAXES!\u201d Here are the details from <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20140827172728\/http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/2014\/03\/18\/born-to-run-from-high-taxes-study-shows-wealthy-nj-residents-fleeing\/?intcmp=latestnews\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fox News<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>New Jersey\u2019s high taxes may be costing the state billions of dollars a year in lost revenue as high-earning residents flee, according to a recent study. The study, Exodus on the Parkway, was completed by Regent Atlantic last year but held for publication until after the November 2013 elections. The study stated it \u201cintentionally\u201d held its results \u201cas 2014 is not an election year for state legislators\u201d and it will \u201chopefully encourage a serious and objective dialogue aimed at addressing and solving the challenges that New Jersey currently faces.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Holding back the report was probably a mistake, although I can see not wanting to influence the election. However, expecting those clowns to look into fixing the issues is just wishful thinking.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>The study shows the state has been steadily losing high-net-worth residents since 2004, when Democratic Gov. Jim McGreevey signed the millionaire\u2019s tax into law. The law raised the state income tax 41 percent on those earning $500,000 or more a year. \u201cThe inception of this tax, coupled with New Jersey\u2019s already high property and estate taxes, leaves no mystery about why the term \u2018tax migration\u2019 has become a buzzword among state residents and financial, legal, and political professionals,\u201d the study, conducted by Regent states. <\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>As I mentioned before, it isn\u2019t just New Jersey. All the states that have been run by the Progressive Liberal Democrats are experiencing the same thing. New York has lost billions in potential tax revenue due to this same issue. People do not like paying any more in taxes then they absolutely have to, they expect value for their money and will look for any lawful way to minimize the bite put on their money from the government. They know what really happens to their tax dollars.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/toilet.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-8033\" alt=\"toilet\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/toilet-289x300.jpg?resize=159%2C166\" width=\"159\" height=\"166\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/toilet.jpg?resize=289%2C300&amp;ssl=1 289w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/toilet.jpg?resize=144%2C150&amp;ssl=1 144w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/toilet.jpg?w=300&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 159px) 100vw, 159px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>One notable, (and not at all surprising), person who did this is conservative radio talk show host, Rush Limbaugh. He moved to Florida a few years ago and is saving tens of millions in taxes. The warmer climate was also attractive to him no doubt. Have the Progressive Liberal Moonbats in the New Jersey legislature learned their economic lessons? Of course not!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>Democrats in New Jersey have been pushing for even higher taxes on the wealthy in recent years. They have failed three times to raise the millionaire\u2019s tax even higher than McGreevey did under threat of a veto by Governor Chris Christie. <\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Christie, aka The Jersey Whale is a classic RINO, but even he knows that jacking taxes through the roof isn\u2019t going to solve the fiscal problems the state has. As any real economist knows, and I\u2019m certainly not one, you don\u2019t increase revenue by stealing money from the major producers. You increase revenue by widening the pool of people paying taxes. This is one reason why fiscally conservative states are doing so well. They keep their tax rates as low as they can, producers come in to the state, hire people who then pay taxes. Progressive Liberal Moonbats can\u2019t grasp this simple fact. It isn\u2019t what they were taught in Marxism, Socialism and Communism for Dummies in Collage. So, just as their socialist professors, none of whom have ever worked a day in the real world, tell them, they just keep raising taxes and assume that the serfs will just keep paying.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/pay-taxes.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7369\" alt=\"The most interesting man in the world on paying taxes\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/pay-taxes-239x300.jpg?resize=239%2C300\" width=\"239\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/pay-taxes.jpg?resize=239%2C300&amp;ssl=1 239w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/pay-taxes.jpg?resize=119%2C150&amp;ssl=1 119w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/pay-taxes.jpg?w=400&amp;ssl=1 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 239px) 100vw, 239px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The results speak for themselves.
