[Democrats hate too much]

Wherever they move to they need to leave their liberal fiscal values in their old state.

They should have been fleeing the SALT in the first place

As many have done way before this deduction was ever limited

As it properly should be limited it serves absolutely no public purpose It was just a subsidy to the blue states

[Theoria]

Enough refugees leaving NY and Cali can change an entire election. Just as all of the refugees leaving other northern states have changed the south.

Rarely do people stay and fight. I

The Federal government was subsidizing a whole lot of bad liberal government policy at the state level. This tax change + the reduction of corporate tax rate from 36% to 21% = very stable genius.

After they decimate the territory, they swarm to the next prosperous locale.

So lets say your income is $5M. Pretty good. You pay your state tax in NJ of 9% so that's $450,000. Throw in anther $25K for the property taxes on your stately manor house and that's $475K in state and local taxes. No issues, it will come off of my fed so ... wait, what? It doesn't anymore?

That's a lot of scratch for the privilege of living in NJ. Now if you work at Goldman Sachs you are sort of stuck, you can live in NY or CT but you're still paying the same. But if you own a business and can decide where you want your HQ to be, easy peasy: move to Delaware of Florida or ... almost anywhere is better than NJ.

The best part of this is the Governor of NJ is responding by creating a special tax on incomes over $5M and now he wants to extend that to anyone making over $1M. This guy was the CEO of Goldman Sachs and he's that economically illiterate that he thinks taxing them more in these circumstances will work out well.

It will spawn what is called a vicious cycleThe more taxpayers and small business owners who leave will drive taxes higher as the tax base shrinks while the taxes explode. I only hope to get out before the real estate market crash. Nobody wants to pay 5 figure school and property taxes on a reasonably sized normal home.

[Cold Heart]

An Oregon legislator (R) commented that pending tax legislation would cause people to leave the state. Another legislator (D) said let them leave. “D”, the party of evil.

Illinois is losing the equivalent of a medium sized suburban town every year.

Every year. No wonder the Dems here are howling about the census. We are going to lose at least one and maybe two House seats. And you can bet that they’ll be the few remaining Republicans.

I.E. The limited SALT Deduction.

People aren’t blaming the High Tax States they live in for the increased Tax Burden, they ae blaming Republicans and POTUS Trump for passing the Tax Bill.

I still believe it played a part in us losing the House and not gaining more Seats in the Senate. We should have had 55, not 53.

Yes, I know that the Russian Hoax and the 40 plus House GOP Retirements played a role as well.

I still think the SALT Deduction should have been at least $20,000, not the $10,000 that made it to the final Tax Bill.

New York city is worn out. It needs to be made into a separate state so the rest or New York isn’t dragged down by that city’s maintenance costs.

[Malsua]

I currently live in NJ.

I’m due to close on a house in Florida in 10 days. I’m not moving yet but this is step 1. It means when I’m ready to get out of this tax and gun law hell hole, it’s just a hop and a skip.

It’ll be a rental and vacation home for a few years, then I’m out.

I can’t wait.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

We have been having in influx of Californicators here in Texas for a few years. They seem to be brining their liberal crackpot ideas with them choosing to blame President Trump for every “problem” they see on the national level and Governor Abbott for every “problem” they see on the state level. They are also involved in many more crackup on the roadways in and around places like Austin which is driving up the auto insurance rates.

I wish they would stay in California. They created the problem. They ought to stay and fix the problem. Unfortunately, they are a cancer that is metastasizing into other states.

[mewzilla]

It started in NYS decades ago.

In 60 or so years, we’ve lost almost half our House seats.

[MayflowerMadam]

When we left CA in 2010, there were rumblings that the state was going to institute an “Exodus Tax” (I think that was the exact phrase). It was to charge high wage earners and companies if they wanted to leave.

[Brian Griffin]

The solution is Constitutional revenue caps, not locust relocation.

NY Metro property taxation is absurd.

It’s like renting your house from the local government.

The overburdened taxpayers of New York, New Jersey and California need our help, not our scorn.

Leftists generally love money more than we do. They want power, but they’ll happily keep their money if given the opportunity.

We need to create the opportunity to retain the fruits of honest hard work.

[Hotlanta Mike]

Don’t move to Georgia. We’re all rednecks y’all. And abortion of fetuses with heartbeat is no longer legal.

[GOPJ]

New York Democrats who voted for higher taxes in New York are NOT welcome in Florida. They can stay put with their taxes, late term abortions and corrupt politicians. We don’t want them in Florida.

[Alas Babylon!]

Do NOT come here. We'd like to keep it sweet, not sour.

[Truthoverpower]

At least we have the weather out here in California
