Tax Exodus: Five States that Residents are Fleeing

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


By Richard Rider, Chairman San Diego Tax Fighters

“It’s not just that people are fleeing our state.  It’s WHO is leaving — the young, the educated, the entrepreneurial, the ambitious and, of course, the wealthy.  We keep our welfare population close to our Golden State buxom.”


RIDER
COMMENT:  California just missed being the second most abandoned state.
 NY state edged us out, with basket case Illinois leading this race to
the bottom.

It’s not just that people are fleeing our state.  It’s WHO is leaving — the young, the educated, the entrepreneurial, the ambitious and, of course, the wealthy.  We keep our welfare population close to our Golden State buxom.

I
might add that this tax refugee outflow is based on PAST figures. Still
to come are the consequences of our “soak the rich” tax.  And the costs
of the AB32 “cap-and-trade” fiasco.

And BTW, all five states voted for Obama, though #5 Ohio’s race was close.

Tax Exodus: Five States that Residents Are Fleeing

December 4, 2012
Cash-strapped states are finding it increasingly difficult to find new
sources of revenue. Many states have turned to tax increases to sustain
current levels of spending rather than making cuts in various programs.
As a result, people have begun to move to different states to avoid the
taxation, resulting in a net loss of revenue, says the Fiscal Times.
Five states top the list for shrinking populations according to migratory patterns:
  • Illinois.
  • New York.
  • California.
  • New Jersey.
  • Ohio.
Some states have had a constant stream of people moving out of the
state, like Ohio; yet the fact that Illinois has so many people moving
out surprises many. However, the state has experienced an income tax
increase of almost 67 percent, which has residents opting to leave the
state.
Some local economies benefit from the increase of new residents as
employers expand their consumer base and attract new talent. Low tax
incentives have helped states like Texas and Florida develop better tax
bases.
However, states with a declining population must worry about the
long-term implications. For example,  a dwindling population may create a
negative feedback in which local governments respond to it by
increasing taxes to make up for lost revenue, which, in turn, would lead
to more people leaving the state.
