When did I say anything to the contrary? I offered no support or opposition to the proposal... just stated that if the result of the change is that hordes flee high tax states, that I’d like to profit from that (independent of the fact that such an exodus would be horrible for the hordes’ destinations).

And I told you that you can't have it both ways...meaning that red states would suffer and they may or may NOT ( and probably "NOT" ) "profit" from the exodus.

How would you, personally, "profit" from such a thing?

First of all, red states would no longer be RED, the exodus would probably crash the economies of the blue states, which could then easily go bankrupt, leading to defaults on all kinds of payment, with those governors then begging the Fed to bail them out.

Moving a company to a lower tax state also means that salaries get slashed.

There are a lot of other details that you haven't taken into consideration/thought about at all.
