That represents the federal tax liabilities that everyone else in the country subsidized through SALT. The progressive income tax used taxes paid by people in low-tax states to repay the wealthy for their taxes in places like California.I think this argument falls flat when talking about states like CA and NY which pay more in federal taxes than they get back in federal spending.
Hard to say a net payer isn't paying their share.

A major reason the “RICH” donated heavily to the Democrats. What a scam. Typical of the Democrats.
Always follow the money if a Democrat supports whatever an issue may be.

It wouldn't surprise me if the rest of the Hollyweird crowd move out of California to avoid high taxes.

If wealthy Californians would read FRee Republic, they would know that much of the federal taxes that they and all US taxpayers pay are unconstitutional, taxes that the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Congress cannot justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States."Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
And to put a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes and make Pres. Trump's vision for MAGA last for many generations, wealthy US citizens need to work with their state lawmakers to support Pres. Trump in leading the states to repeal the 16th and ill-conceived 17th Amendments.

How did Texas get into Hotair’s list? They don’t have a state income tax.

I would imagine that most, if not all states pay more in than they get back just due the cost of handling the money.
I do not have the source to hand but the number I’ve read is that the government typically has a 40% overhead charge which means that if your state gets back mo0re than 60 cents on the dollar it pays then it is getting more than it puts in after the feds take their cut both coming and going.

Misleading headline — federal “tax reform” isn’t costing wealthy Californians anything. California funding its bloated, out of control open borders welfare state based on taxing the “rich” is what is costing wealthy Californians a fortune. But most of them are high-tech billionaires and movie stars who are all for government social spending so they shouldn’t care.

It’s the state that is taxing you. Complain to your state!

Fat Bastard lives at Torch Lake, Michigan.
He at one time owned places in N.Y. and several other states. But I think his ex.(Mrs. JabbatheHut) either got them or forced him into selling them to clear debt or share value in the divorce
