And what of the millions of patriots, families, churches, veterans, and conservatives who live, worship, and raise children in states like CA, NY, MN, NJ, MA, CT, IL, and others? Are they simply expendable political cannon fodder? Their lives can be destroyed in some half assed political sham of a tax bill? I guess we are longer the United States of America, and the GOPe cares nothing about the middle class.

This idiotic vanity is proof positive of how crazy some people are.

Taxpayers(federal) should not be forced to subsidize financial unsound policies that happen in other states. It has to end.

If California wants to pave their streets with gold for the illegals, then let California taxpayers pay for it.

I live in Massachusetts. Explain to me how this is going to really put that much of an onus on us? I think this goes a long way towards beginning to defund the Left in this country.

I agree with what you are saying but please don’t blame Pres. Trump. You know he wanted across the board tax cuts but the sh!+ heads in congress aren’t really supply side Republicans.

I guess we're supposed to "take one for the team."

Their lives will not be destroyed

They will move or get more politically involved. High tax states spend ridiculous amounts of money because they can. Now their electorates won’t be so quick to say yes

They can agitate for lower taxes with the millions of moderate Democrats who become moderate Republicans or they can move to a lower tax state.

But it’s nice to know that your patriotism is limited by the pain you feel in your wallet.

Perhaps it will wake up the people who live in those states & get them motivated to demand that their politicians keep their expenses down & lower those high taxes.

I lived in Calif for over 40 years.

High taxes was a major factor in my moving out of that state forever.

Yep, that's exactly what we are according to some dumbasses on this thread. As long as they get theirs, they're happy to throw their fellow Conservatives and/or Republicans to the wolves.

They embody everything that's wrong with this country. They're the problem.

I’m hiring sw engineers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, FPGA designers, technicians, ....

We cant get enough good ones. The NE and west coast engineers see our cost of living and want too keep their high salaries and live like kings, doesn’t work that way but we have good long term work in a conservative area. We also don’t want to hear how it was done in your previous shit hole, high tax, over regulated location. If we can’t find more we will just keep working more hours.

I don’t want whiners just winners.
