You can only raise taxes so high before those paying them leave. When they do, your tax base shrinks. Raise them again to replace lost revenue, more taxpayers leave and the tax base shrinks even more. It becomes a vicious cycle as California tries to tax its way to prosperity.

I will never understand California.
Their money and prosperity came from the Military Industrial Complex and Hollywood.
To replace that growth with peasants is odd.
