I am sick and tired of subsidizing tax payers who choose to live in high SALT states

So people who are forced to pay the Feds taxes upon taxes that they already paid are "subsidizing you" personally?

Taxpayers are not welfare recipients.

It is really not complicated. If a taxpayer in NY is able to deduct $24k, but a taxpayer in FL with identical AGI has lower SALT and can only take the standard deduction of $12k, then even AOC can understand that as a NY resident she benefits with a lower tax rate than the Florida taxpayer, all because SALT are higher in NY. That is totally unfair to the FL taxpayer. Why should he be paying higher tax than a NY taxpayer simply because he chose to live in a low tax state.
