Progressives, who inexplicably still seek to coddle the worst humanity has to offer
As we’ve argued before; when a country fails to solve its problems, those who are capable of leaving will do so. There’s no reason for a person of reasonable wealth to stay in a nation that’s making his or her life miserable. That’s not rocket science; it’s just simple economics.
So, when you look at a nation like France, you might assume that the ugly trifecta of high taxation, high cost of living, and radical Islam is incentivizing the departure of the financially stable. ...And you’d be right - if you placed the emphasis on radical Islam.
I wonder where they will try to resettle.
It sure ain’t Belgium.
Can’t say I blame them.
I read about a Dutchman who put his property in Brussels on the market the day following the bombing and moved back to Holland. He cited cultural diversity.
Try reading the article’

Good question. Off the top of my head, Singapore is a capitalist country which doesn’t tolerate Islamist activities, so that seems like a possible destination.

The exodus of wealth can’t possibly be the result of the enormous tax increases imposed by Hollande’s socialist government. No, not that — must be Islamophobia.
There goes their tax base. Now who will they tax to make up for the loss? Yep. And if either Bernie or the Hilldebeeste get the WH it’ll happen here.
I read some business piece last week talking about this, and noted that several significant cities in Australia are taking up the bulk of the millionaires (Perth, Melbourne, Sydney).
I made a trip recently and went through Sydney and Melbourne. Home prices are blasting through the roof on homes within the urban region of each (you can’t buy anything for less than $500k US). Lot of business growth, small malls opening up, and new restaurants appearing monthly in both locations. Australia is very tight on immigration but they have various ways that if you appeared at the front door and said you had a couple of million for business investment, they’d approve your visa.
Toss in the climate and significant air travel options, it’s probably enticing for these millionaires.

damn... coulda fooled me
