No, in this system, they would be "residents", they would just be residents that haven't gone through the sort of procedures that California would like for them to, and so they get absurd property taxes or whatnot.
e.g. if you go don't go through immigration, you can physically live there, but you'll have to pay 105% of your income in tax
- aw1621107 4y agoIf California residents also have to go through that same procedure (i.e., everyone is subject to it), sure, that might pass muster. Otherwise, it sounds like a distinction without a difference. How do you imagine a "going through immigration" process that doesn't effectively produce "resident"/"non-resident" status?
