A very wealthy man up here in Outer Neeorkistan decided to pull up stakes and head for Florida. He said he could no longer stand to fork out $14,000 a day, yeah, a day, in Outer Neeorkistan income taxes. The bright folks in Albany don’t get it.

And, the ripple effect of their flight; fewer sales for the luxury auto dealers, boat builders, jewelry stores, fewer country club memberships, empty yacht slips...

Higher unemployment as a result.

This is a great opportunity for a smart governor somewhere to make his state into a modern-day “Galt’s Gulch”.
