If Illinois were located in the NY tristate area, everybody would be moving there because taxes are so low.
To: ViLaLuz
I know people who purposely moved to Illinois because its the state that offers the best welfare benefits.
...
Until they run out of other people’s money, and they seem to have crossed that point.

Many doctors and others said much the same.

The problem is they bring their liberal voting habits with them to wherever they end up.

The missing variable is that of numbers in and out.
Using average income is good, but if the “ins” are down in other states, but the “in” number way exceeds the “out” migrant number, then larger deficits can occur.
I think CA may be a case in point.

In 1990, Connecticut with our wonderful moronic Governor (and this moron could make Daniel Malloy look like a statesman) Lowell P. Weicker decided to put an income tax on the citizens. Ever since, the Dems use it to spend money for special interests.
If the election is any indication, Connecticut citizens might be fed up...can't wait til 2018 to see.

I thought that was Minnesota. They run extra buses between the states on days when Minnesota has welfare payouts. Presumably there are busloads of people collecting from both states.

It could be Minnesota now. I heard the Illinois claim years ago.
