Whiney baby man wanted all the benefits of Chicago/Illinois -- which helped make him rich -- but didn't want to pay his fair share of taxes. He felt he deserved special treatment. Good riddance to him.

Chicago wasn’t corrupt enough?

Taxes. And that’s fine. Can’t run a budget if corporations keep getting concessions. Good riddance.

But it does matter if we have places to work and make a lot of money.

If all of T1 cities put the taxation pressure on the billionaires then they will have nowhere to run. If ZM is making them shit their pants, then that’s exactly what regular Americans should want

If a small handful don’t want to tax that’s fine, the issue will get forced eventually as states and the fed gov start running out of money to pay for social programs we don’t seem to want to cut. Don’t tax the rich but also don’t cut social security/Medicare is just delulu. Jobs + property tax is not enough to make up for lost income tax. Eventually the average American will turn towards much more radical economic policy when they realize the current path just leads them to nowhere. You can only distract with identity politics for so long before people realize they still can’t put food on the table

Citadel may have a couple hundred employees in Florida but the top new talent they need comes from the biggest cities

Miami is closer to Virginia where all the finance & global data center/fiber connections are

Also corruption and greed, yes

The surfing is better in Florida

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?
