I guess housing complexes will just have to be owned by millionaires then.
They won’t. But this is why all of America should tax billionaires. And the individuals that do leave, those are the problem in your country and state… if they leave you don’t want them there in the first place, other states shouldn’t want them either. Greedy bastards.
Tax is to keep all in balance, cause they profit from all, they should give some back… there needs to be a balance.
Oh no, the people who make everything worse AND more expensive are upset and will leave! Oh no, how terrible! How will the place survive without these parasites?
Please, PLEASE, won’t someone think of the trickling down of theirdiarrheasorry, I meant the trickling down the very verrrrrry small amount of money they are forced to part with, not diarrhea.Yes, what every city needs is more parasitical leeches sucking the place dry, not less!!!

No it doesn’t. It has them threatening to leave while having no intention of leaving. Just look at NYC after Mamdani, or the 500 million MA has collected after passing their wealth tax and no one left.
And go where? Your wealth is tied to a physical location.
They won’t. They won’t pay to completely recreate things like Silicon Valley and Hollywood elsewhere.
Just like they’re not leaving New York despite saying they would. All the Finance infrastructure is there, they won’t recreate it from scratch elsewhere.
And even if they did, if the global workforce protested and demand governments tax billionaires extremely heavily, then they’ll have nowhere to go, and will have to pay their fair share of taxes.
What if we just leave a few small islands where they dont pay taxes and tie it to the condition of them living there. Then all the billionaires are in one place and
become easy targetscould potentially get into some accident
Heard the same shit about with mamdani in nyc. Dont belive the elite class propaganda.
Or do believe them and let them go. They don’t provide value. The extract it.
In fact, get a legally enforceable commitment to leave before the vote. Put a date on it.
1% of the estimated value of their assets assessed as a fine per day past the date, increasing a percent each day.
Especially when for a lot of them their value is tied up in ownership of land. If the land they own is in California… They can’t take those assets with them.
Riiiight… like Zuck is just gonna give up and sell all the land he’s buying in Palo Alto with all the money in the compound he’s building.
Came here to say this.
Just let them leave if they really wanna. But where are they going to go, really?
The billionaire and centimilliionaire class should be getting on the ground and kiss the ground in thankfulness for what this country - and specifically, certain states - have done for them.
These ungrateful pieces of shit cannot ever have enough though, apparently.
They said the same in Massachusetts and then didn’t https://www.wonkette.com/p/massachusettss-millionaire-tax-still
Same for New Jersey.
And NYC
Oh no! The people who hoard all the money and don’t pay taxes might leave?
“LET US COLLECT MORE MONEY THAN ANYONE WOULD EVER NEED OR WE’LL LEAVE!”
No they won’t. 😂
Win/Win?
How would that be bad?
