California loses one taxpayer every minute while families pay a staggering $29,753 "penalty" just to live there - yet politicians wonder why people are fleeing in record numbers? Meanwhile, Florida gains a new taxpayer every two minutes, Texas every three minutes, and even states like Tennessee are cleaning up. We break down the jaw-dropping costs driving this mass exodus and why liberal policies are creating economic refugees in their own states. From Seattle's new socialist mayor to California's zoning "solutions" that won't fix anything, we explore how government overreach is literally pricing out middle-class families. The data doesn't lie - states with no income tax, reasonable regulations, and pro-business policies are booming while high-tax, high-regulation states hemorrhage residents and revenue. Is anyone surprised that people choose freedom and affordability over virtue signaling and endless taxation? What will it take for these politicians to admit their policies are driving away the very taxpayers funding their bloated budgets?
