Message-ID: <2F78F85553BD24890F0544E0@utd71538.utdallas.edu> Date: Wed, 12 Oct 2011 16:43:53 -0500 From: Paul Schmehl <pschmehl_lists@...rr.com> To: "Thor (Hammer of God)" <thor@...merofgod.com>, David Alanis <canito@...an.us>, full-disclosure@...ts.grok.org.uk Subject: Re: [OT] Obama said: "American people understand that not everybody's been following the rules" The thing these stupid people don't seem to get is that millionaires and billionaires are the only ones that can afford to move elsewhere. Tax them enough and they'll simply move to another country. That's already what's happening with corporations and with some individuals. As their tax load increases, the incentive to simply move gets greater and greater until one day they do. Then their tax load goes to zero and the money is gone forever. We've already seen these within the US, where millionaires are leaving CA and NY for greener pastures. If they leave the US entirely, they won't be back. Then who will the government get the money from? --On October 12, 2011 8:31:34 PM +0000 "Thor (Hammer of God)" <thor@...merofgod.com> wrote: > Well, you said "nor do I care" so I too am confused.
