Love visiting Florida. But it’ getting crowded there. (Gulf Coast)
Even the self-absorbed “sorta wealthy” are leaving NY and California. There are lots of financial reasons, but they also finally have realized that as cool as they may think they are, we in fly-over country don’t really care what they think of us. We certainly don’t care what they drive, what they wear, what they read, what they watch, or what they do.
They are like the emperor with no clothes.
I recall a story a while back, where the mother of Ocasio-Cortez was now living in Florida. And she cited taxes and cost of living as reasons for abandoning New York.
Nobody will stand still while you pick their pockets of their income and, now her new plan, of their wealth.
The rich and the wealthy are too smart and to mobile to to just sit idly by while some fake Indian wants to fleece them of their monies to pay for someone else's healthcare.
Medicare-For-All is Warren's big mistake. At least when Bernie announced his Medicare-For-All plan months ago at the beginning of his campaign, he had the good sense to caution that he would have to find a way to pay for it first. And he later cancelled the idea becasue he couldn't come up with a way to cover the costs.
Warren announced her plan and then went looking for revenue to pay for it. It took her months to admit in public that the middle class would have their taxes raised to pay for it.
And when that didn't provide enough revenue, she came up with her "steal billionaires' wealth" plan to cover the shortfall of her estimated $52 trillion plan over ten years.
Even Bill Gates balked, saying, "Whoa there lady. I may have to vote for Trump instead of you, if you plan on ravaging my wealth for your political ambitions."
Connecticut used to have no state income tax until Weicker damned one through.
Now people are leaving! Funny how life works out.
I have a simple question why did these idiots at the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times always need to three or four authors to write some stupid article like this?
