Well, it's a non binding referendum anyway, there is no actual measure. If they take the money and drop the property tax rate in general, some people with incomes in the low range of the surcharge might even save money. Hard to say how you could even structure it. Maybe you get a deduction on your state income tax of your state property tax that phases out at higher income levels.

As for successful people fleeing the state.... if you look at the notable examples - Musk, Bezos - they left states *after* they made their fortune to move to states where it's harder to make a fortune than the state they were from. Bezos basically retired - what the hell does Washington need from him if he's retired? The company is still HQ'd in Seattle, and that isn't changing.

People trying to build success need to be in places with the infrastructure and people to build success.

Bullshit. No one fucking trusts that will happen except the idiot progressives who think Brandon Johnson is doing a good job. No one trusts Illinois politicians which is why Pritzker's plan to raise state taxes on everyone but him (since you know he has trusts and offshore stuff) failed miserably. But let's drive more people making money out of Illinois.

Once again you misunderstood that measure but we've been through that before

I fucking get the measure. I get that it is also completely meaningless. I also know that if ever implemented, Smirkin' Don Harmon and Toilets Pritzker will fuck taxpayers over. No one is fooled by their bullshit, which is why they lost the tax increase referendum bid.

Murph should hold his breath until Ken Griffin and Rauner move back to Illinois....

Ralph Nader dropping truth bombs at 90 years old.

"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

This self-important SOB has been living in a weird, twisted la la land for years now.  He's really never gotten over 2000.  Sore loser and a bitter angry man.  Nothin' worse.

And yet he’s 100% spot on with this tweet. Tough for lefties to hear I know, but accurate. The fact it’s even close is a giant billowing red flag.

Has it not occurred to you that you can’t do better than a neck and neck race with one of the supposedly worst candidates of all time? Like seriously what an indictment on the democratic party.

You mean the guy the GOP has put at the top of its ticket three times in a row?  Don't delude yourself.  This race was going to be close no matter who the Democrats picked to replace Biden.

I think that’s an indictment of the voters
