Last I checked, they're still here.


Unlike someone you aren't in favor being your president, raised taxes is a legitimate reason to leave the country; members at the country club I worked for were leaving already, to places like New Zealand and Australia just to prevent their estates from being touched before their kids can even get to it.

If I were affluent enough to leave, I would too. My father's estate is a double-edged sword, where if I liquidate it to cash, there's a 50% tax on estates now in CT. Not sure if that applies elsewhere. If I leave it all in the stock market, I risk major losses. There's just no winning in this economy that Obama 'inherited'
