I truly believe the reason Fl's Median income is lower than vermont is for the fact it's primary industry is hospitality and food service related. (tourism) which tends to be min wage jobs. that said Fl has experienced a big boom in higher paying industrial/areospace jobs with the refunding of the space program.
Eitherway the point stands in that if this country decides to Tax industry as they do in vermont. Industry that can leave will leave. things like the Auto industry, Technology based industries, really anything that can be shipped or provided on line can now leave. which leaves only infrastructure companies. The bare bones of business, food, service, construction etc.. Again look at what a crazy tax plan has done to vermont. They have 1 major company in the whole state that is there that does not have to be there/Not infrastructure.
Verses the hundreds of billions of dollars being poured into Tx and Fl ecconomies because of their tax policies.
If these economies have so much more money, why do their citizens enjoy so much less of it? What's the point then, honestly?
