They won’t have a choice soon. They will be forced to leave New York just to survive.
How bout New Jersey, 9% top end. I own a business here and I am dying to leave. My wife and I are battling it out. I can’t stand paying the pensions of slacker state workers. 25 years with the state and they are handed essentially 2,000,000 in pension benefits for life. I know a retired Fed and state worker collecting nearly $115,000 in 2 pensions and SS for life!
He was a lousy worker and should have been fired.
Get ready they will pass a law limiting your movement from one state to another! New Yorkers are already commuting from PA at 3% income tax.
