Eg, phillip morris just moved back to richmond, VA. Gabz lives in VA.
And personally, I own a farm in NY - that sits vacant. 230 acres of mice and trees, no people - because I refuse to live there.
That IS a tax revolt.
And what did PM promptly do when it moved it's headquarters from NYC back to Richmond? Endorsed marky Mark's raise of cigarette taxes form 25cents a carton to $3.00 a carton and refused to take a stand on Mimms proposed Delaware/New York style smoking ban.
with that said - a recent court ruling regarding NYS income taxes needs to be watched carefully. The ruling was that a telecommuter who lives in Tennessee but works for a NY company has to pay NY income taxes. That ruling is of major concern to me as my husband works for IBM - but never in New York. It's bad enough that Delaware is still taking a chunck of withholding from him because IBM has him "assigned" to a Dover office.....we already pay enough to DE and VA - I don't need NY adding to the problem.
Where is your farm? I live in Erie County and we started a tax revolt in December.
Tuesday they will be voting to raise our taxes again, sales tax up to 9.25.
There will be protesters at county hall.
I am running for Erie County legislature.
Time to take back our government!
