“Try leaving. “

People spend a lifetime building connections. They create a comfortable social space and that space is most of their lives. The job and the taxes are only one aspect of that space. Now consider that the entire family is psychologically rooted. Moving is one of the three most traumatic things that can happen; death and loss of a job being the other two. Moving can cause divorces and is especially traumatic for children. So, it’s harder than you might imagine.

You're exactly right. The wife and I had discussed moving to another country after retirement, but can't leave the kids and grandkids.

Decided to stock up and shelter in place instead.... ;-)

I don't have to imagine. I did it. That's how I know about the problem with the Franchise Tax Board.
