This is how CA started their march to Socialism back 25 years ago.
That is child play in California.
There are some bills currently going through the legislature that would raise the top income tax bracket to 16% plus they want to install a first in the nation wealth tax with a 10 year retroactive clause. Meaning if you leave the state when the wealth tax passes you’re still on the hook to California for another 10 years.
Or if you left California 3 years ago, you suddenly owe California the wealth tax for another 7 years! How can this possibly be constitutional is beyond me. The tax kicks in if you have over $15 million in assets (single filer) or $30 million for joint filers.
