Has zero to do with Ron. Covid or no income tax

The trend has been this way for decades

Jim’s just stuck in his loop asking the same question a 100 times till he get the answer HE Wants. No matter the facts provided

This has been the GOP mantra since 2013 it’s was false then and false now

Americans are relocating to Florida in droves, House Speaker Will Weatherford told a group of liberty-loving activists at the Capitol.
Why? Freedom! It’s a quantity in short supply in those tax-loving states up north.

Fast forward 2022


Gov. Rons announced his Freedom First” annual budget. lol. His Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis has suggested northeasterners are escaping “tax hell” for the income-tax-free Sunshine State.

Wash rinse repeat

Yet Florida own newspapers disputes that propaganda

It’s hard data to get,” MacManus said. “My big question is, ‘Were (new Florida arrivals) typical northeasterners who just want better weather and bring Democratic voting patterns with them, or more affluent people who were upset with lockdowns and who may vote Republican?’”

“If anyone tells you they know definitively,” MacManus said, “they’re lying.”

I didn't ask how any retire to each state. I asked about the reason for the numbers.

Do you know the difference between a question that starts with "how many", and a question that starts with "why"?

The answer, which you will do anything to avoid, is cost. CA is insanely expensive, FL is cheaper (not as cheap as it used to be as real estate prices skyrocket).

One reason what FL is cheaper, is taxes. Taxes are a political thing. Wall Street doesn't determine what state and local taxes are, DC doesn't determine it. Local politicians do.
