Maybe you could walk me through the thought process of how a person fleeing an area for $REASON would then turn around and try to institute said $REASON in their new home. Because not a single Eastern European immigrant I knew in the 80s thought Communism was a good idea.
So you’re either being facetious and I fell for it, or Texas could use a state income tax to bump up their public education game.
- AnimalMuppet 8y agoImagine a continuum, with California at 0 and Texas at 100. You live in California, but you personally, are philosophically at 75. You leave California and move to Texas, because it's more your style. But when you get there, it's closer to what you want, but to you, it's too far the other direction. So you try (perhaps unconsciously) to move it partway toward California. The locals don't agree, and don't like you trying to do so. Note well: This does not mean that a state income tax idea would be a good idea or a bad one for Texas. It only means that it would be a foreign idea.
