RE: Those who can move away to a location where the levy is not present will. Thereby lowering the taxable base once again.
That’s why it is important to keep government decisions as LOCAL as possible. If you centralize government decision making, thereby making it all-encompassing, thereby affecting the largest number of citizens, it becomes VERY DIFFICULT to move.
I can move away easily from my community if I don’t like their fiscal policies and taxes, I can move away from my county, but it is DIFFICULT for me to move out of New York State, much less the USA.
” DIFFICULT for me to move out of New York State”
I own a house and 200 acres in NY state - I don’t live there.
F your taxes.
