They are also losing other people in the lower brackets, people like me. We moved in ‘14 and took my wife’s Calpers pension with us. I’m still working and now paying 2.3% in state taxes, not the 9% we paid in California
I left CA in 1992 and the state sent me threatening letters in the years that followed that I still owed about $37 in state tax. The final letter I got several years later had the total at $600+ because of penalties. Funny though: I researched it about six years ago and they no longer have a record of this. So, sorry for you Californians who had to make up for my bulls**t tax bill.

perfect ... take that pension and run ... to a less expensive state ...
