I watched California regualte themselves out of Petrolium, now I’m seeing them tax the Billionaires out of the State. Business can’t leave fast enough because even if they can withstand the taxes levied against them they can no longer reliablly ship and recieve in and out of California.
Illinois, Morton Salt has been in Illinois for 175 years, they are leaving. The Chicago Bears are moving to Indiana, and list goes on and on.
New York State and City are no longer affordable for the rich and they are moving to Florida and so are their Business.
Every Blue State is seeing Business leave in massive numbers.
A Guy I was in the Military with was just scraping by in the California economy and he sold his home and an electric Car and moved to Houston, went red pretty fast
Seriously are they that retarded about where money comes from and how it is made? I just assume that they believe some Robin Hood is going to step in, punish Musk and redestribute his wealth and make everyone rich.
So Apparently New York City has fined Amazon 9 Million dollars for something delivery truck related. I saw the comment that 9 Million means nothing to them.
9 Million means a lot to anybody and if you are business you don’t treat money with the respect it deserves there will be consequences.
There may well come a time when delivering to New York City is no longer worth the money it costs to do business there. I will laugh my azz off when that day comes.
They are hoping that their party the Marxist of the USA will win at the federal level and send them money. So you leave a red state for a blue state and then a few years down the line the marxist win and they will steal your money even though you are living in a blue state.
That’s exactly right. When the tax base leaved Blue states for Red ones, the Feds will just use the tax money from those people and give it to the Blue states.
New York Governor Hochul told republicans living in New York: “Get out of town. Because you do not represent our values. You are not New Yorkers.” “And we are here to say that the era of Trump, and Zeldin and Molinaro, just jump on a bus and head down to Florida where you belong, OK?”
Now that the state is broke she’s begging them to come back to write her a check.
If you will notice Trump hasn’t said squat, he knows the outcome they expect and want however I don’t think that’s the one they will get.
That’s what they want, they want to be the Man who “Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo” and I assume before anyone actually writes a check, that will require legislation and accountablity and audits and FBI Agents. Good Luck with that, you wanna be a smart azz litlle Turd? Live in a Sewer.
I think Minnesota kind of paved the way for how all that will work out and the smoke hasn’t even settled in Minneapolis.yet. So, whatever happens will happen, but you are likely to get an investigation along the way that might have serious repercussions.
In all of this self destructive economic turmoil caused by Blue States someone is going to collect all of the marbles by making Life and the ability to do Business in their State so much easier than Blue States.
As History shows when the economy squeezes Crime goes up and as the programs become unaffordable the problems will increase.
A survey by the Public Policy Institute of California said 54% of likely voters agree with the tax, which would would impose a one-time 5% levy on California residents with assets exceeding $1 billion. Labor unions, who helped initiate the proposal, said they have enough signatures to qualify for the November ballot.
Democrats were much more likely to vote yes on the tax at 76%. Republicans were largely opposed with 82% against the measure, according to the institute. Independents were more balanced, with 53% of them in favor.
Business groups and other opponents, including Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), have warned the state’s economy would be devastated by such a tax with CEOs fleeing the state alongside potential jobs. More than 108,000 jobs could be lost if the tax goes into effect, one analysis concluded, and $28 billion worth of wages would also be lost in California.
I had coffee with some cop friends of mine the other day and one of them said that during the obama administration that either a bill was passed or executive order was signed that gave the federal government in times of financial crisis the power to raid the banks and seize our money,
I have been very busy trying to get a deal finished, so I haven’t had time to look it up.
Feds will do what is deemed necessary during a financial crises. A person can dream up whatever possible heavy handed big government scheme that suits their fancy and find evidence to support it.
Here’s an interesting article in Institute for Justice describing the DOJ arguing that money isn’t necessarily your property.
. “Money,” the government recently asserted in a brief in one of IJ’s cases, “is not necessarily ‘property’ for constitutional purposes.”
The government’s brief offered three rationales for that argument: (1) The government creates money when it prints it; (2) the government can take your money by taxing it; and (3) the Constitution allows the government to spend money for the “general welfare.”
In other words, if you ask a government lawyer who owns your money, the lawyer might answer, “We do.”
I remember Alex Jones saying something about that back in the days when Obama was POTUS, but there are better ways of going about it than that, think incrementle bites until its too late.
