      Note that those are also generally desirable places to live, so rich people live there anyway, making the whole ‘they’ll just move if taxes are high’ argument bullshit.

      It’s crazy how fast the California tax rate scales as you make more. The difference between like 50k, 100k, 150k and 200k alone is wild. Each step the rate scales so fast

        It is wild that California has 5 steps to $66,295. After that the groupings are huge. Very interesting.

            True. Those side effects being things like Health Care, Roads, Schools, First Responders, etc…

              Unfortunately, California is facing a massive budget deficit and cuts to all those programs due to people moving away

                Yup. The folks that over relied upon office building taxes are indeed learning they should have seen it coming. Your point remains irrelevant however as those services shall still exist in CA while still not existing in TX.
