What’s the plan when the rich decide to pull up stakes and leave this country?

The Dems never believe people respond to their taxes. They always believe in "static" analysis where Revenue = Tax Rates x Income. But, as disclosed yesterday, Maryland reveals the truth: "Wealthy leaving Maryland in droves to avoid higher taxes." And even NYC provides tax credits to film making companies to make sure they come back to Manhattan to make their movies.

Next steps? Revoke passports? Require permission to move to the next state? Reciprocal tax laws to reach you even after you flee a high tax state? A wall on the Mexican and Canadian borders to keep us from fleeing? 100% death tax on estates?

The ‘next step’ is going on under your nose.

They are seeking to pass the ‘Uniform Child Abduction Prevention Act’ in all 50 states.

Mississippi fell yesterday.

How is this related?

This law allows them to sit back and have us put the chains on ourselves.

Much of the population is divorced.

Under this law, one parent can accuse the other parent of being a ‘risk’ to commit a felony (child abduction).

Without that other parent having commited any illegal act, the courts can then impose penalties.

Before that person can ‘travel’ to a new state, they will be required to register their ‘order’ in that new state.

With todays voracious divorce lawyers, it will not take long before all of the nation is entangled in restrictive orders preventing and inhibiting their travel.

Under that law, YOU are a risk of abducting your child if you meet any ONE of the following conditions:

1) you obtain your child’s medical records.

2) you obtain your child’s birth certificate.

3) you obtain your child’s school records.

4) you sell a house.

5) you quit a job.

6) you terminate a lease (house, car, other).

7) you close a bank account.

8) you book plan tickets to another state for yourself.

9) you make hotel reservations in another state for yourself.

10) you have a sister who lives in another state.

11) you have an aunt or uncle who lives in another state.

12) you have ‘strong cultural ties’ to another state.

12) you have ‘strong emotional ties’ to another state.

13) you have ‘strong financial ties’ to another state.

14) you don’t have ‘strong cultural ties’ to your state.

15) you don’t have ‘strong emotional ties’ to your state.

16) you don’t have ‘strong financial ties’ to your state.

So the big question I have, is why can’t I get anybody else to talk about this issue?

Why can’t I get anyone else to publish this issue?

Why the silence?

With just a little effort, this bill does not pass.

Got it modified in Louisiana.

Got it stopped in Texas a few years back.

Probably also in Michigan.

Got the New Jersey commission to not recommend it.

And yet here it is, two years later, and Mississippi just ‘unanimously’ passed this piece of trash of a law without looking at it.

And New Hampshire is also close to falling.

Just ONE (redacted) major conservative group raising a stink about this law would have stopped it dead in its tracks.

But no, the only stupid person speaking up is me.

What is up with that?

Where are all the other (redacted) conservatives?

Not true. Democrats believe higher tobacco taxes discourage smoking, and higher gas taxes reduce oil consumption... they just believe higher corporate taxes, sales, taxes and income taxes has no economic effect!
