By moving to Florida, he’d reduce his tax burden by roughly $550,000.
*****************************************************************
Before Trump’s tax changes (effective 2018) that $550,000 was tax deductible for computing federal taxes — thus the federal taxpayers across the nation were, in effect, subsidizing Scarborough’s state taxes. With Trump’s changes only the first $10,000 of the state and local taxes are federally deductible thus minimizing the subsidy of Connecticut’s residents’ payment of their state taxes.

I don’t blame them from fleeing Connecticut and its high (and no longer subsidized) state and local taxes. Many more will be following.

I don’t think anyone would blame Joe or any ‘joe’ for avoiding a higher tax. It’s that he criticizes others who do the same.

I blame them for not living up to their beliefs with their Progressive Tax BS. Hypocritical Commie DemoncRats, nothing more, nothing less.

I agree. Anything that denies the state of Connecticut and DeBlasio revenue is a good thing.
