We're so much like East Germany that the state has even built a virtual wall in the form of a hefty "exit tax" which you have to pay on the sale of your home if your forwarding address is out of state.
I'm astonished that such a law can pass constitutional muster. I'd have to reread the Constitution to see what I think it violates, but . . .

How heavy of a tax is it?
