You’ve got the tense wrong.

There’s no “will” about it.

The NY budget is already beyond repair no matter how “fair” the taxes become.

If only they would leave their NYC group-think and attitude behind.

The biggest cancer is the lack of understanding of how our 1st and 2nd Amendments were to be exercised.

We are naked in front of the enemy by choice. We allow them to disarm and humiliate us with taxes and words.

Unfortunately California is ahead.

The current California top rate is 9.3% @ about $100k and they are trying to raise it come November.

The problem with people fleeing Cali and NY, THEY TAKE THEIR DEMOCRAT VOTING PATTERNS WITH THEM. And they are too stupid to realize that’s what made their homes lousy places to live in the first place. Not everyone fleeing is a liberal of course but too many are. You broke it you own libs, stay there and die there.

“Mayor Bloomberg will announce that moving is prohibited.”

No joke... that’s something that may be a real possibility. California is losing businesses as well. I don’t know how they would legally justify it, but they might move to keep people from leaving.

Freepers in New York and California — you need to pay attention to this.

“You broke it you own libs, stay there and die there.”

The pattern of libs sh*tting up where they originate from and moving onto another place to sh*t up reminds me of illegal aliens...

Look at California too. They wreck it, and move to Oregon, or Arizona.

That’s what they call “californication”.

The problem is they will still vote leftist.

It is an interesting dilemma. The ones that stay are not capitalists, they are the ones living on the teat. So they will accelerate the move to government welfare. The ones that leave, leave with their capitol, and I suspect tend to vote more and more conservative these days. The ponzi scheme of shifting the Republic to a Democracy is beginning to show some serious cracks in the foundation.
