My own state of Maryland is running millionaires to other states like it was a contest to see how many they can force to move.
Martin O’Malley wants to be President after bankrupting Maryland he wants to take a shot at bankruptiong America.
Just in case there is anything left after we get rid of Obama.

You have identified one of the facts about these socialist governors that, on the surface, seems to defy logic. Actually, this is evidence of what systems folks call a “reinforcing loop”. If you raise taxes on and otherwise punish the hardest working people, they leave or simply don’t get a chance to succeed in the first place and so the proportion of the population that is hard working and successful is reduced. This results in a higher proportion of the population who vote for anti-success politicians. Over the years, governors who are the worst for their states’ economies will receive higher and higher popularity ratings and greater proportions of the vote. Those governors then use their popularity as a ticket to national office, e.g., the Presidency. This is a flaw in the system that actually rewards bad decision makers.
Of course, this can translate to the level of a nation, such as Greece.
