    It has already been thoroughly proven that that’s not the case. Rich people live where they do because they want to have the best lifestyle they can, not for tax reasons. There’s already no shortage of tax havens.

            Yeah but California is where the talent and tech is. New Jersey is still New Jersey. People want to go to California. I’ve never heard anyone say they were excited to go to New Jersey or move to New Jersey because that’s where you can make it big or because it’s so beautiful or because they have a start up or anything.

              New Jersey is kind of a NYC suburb, so it’s already where people go to to have the benefits of a happening place without the costs. I haven’t heard about any particular anti-rich taxes happening there though, so I don’t know what that person is referencing.
