And I’m telling you that you haven’t given a single real-world example of this behavior. It sounds really, really good on paper. But at the end of the day it just doesn’t happen. If someone running their business is upset over their tax bill and decides to cash out and quit, someone else who wants that profit will move in and take over their market share. It’s as simple as that.

Its amusing to see the malls in Portland, Oregon so packed because the state of Washington has no state income taxes, it has a State Sales tax. Its economics at work.
