You know, I get so sick of that argument. All of my local politicians have used that saw, “...it’s our money, we ought to get it back.”
IF IT’S OURS—THEY SHOULDN’T HAVE IT IN THE FIRST PLACE!!
(Okay, breathing normally again...)
We’ll I hate to say this but the states that have state income taxes are better prepared to leave the union. They already have a taxing system in place to collect their own resident’s income tax and shut off the pipe to Washington.
Florida has no income tax and as much as that is great, the lack of a Florida income collection system may delay our departure if many others states are successful.
