You should have said "Whilst living in America"

We used to say about Brits:
"They fancy themselves to be clever"!

Isn't that right?

Just a hint oh Techno. Los Angeles has been a hot mess for a while. The center for California’s increases in infections. 2600 of 8700 cases. Twice as many Hispanics as whites are contracting Covid. This is a class disease to a very large degree. The idiot you voted for has made this worse.

I don't believe I voted for the Mayor of Los Angeles, but I suspect that a lot of liberals from L.A. did.

North Carolina has one of the slowest rates of virus spread in the country.

Number of infections doubled in a month. Sixth highest state yesterday in the number of new cases, 1,999. Who’s spinning?

It's hell here in NC, but thank God I don't live in Calif.

In the last month, Calif increased the total number of cases from about 150,000 to 335,000. It won't be long before you are number one in the country. A month ago, Calif was showing about 3,000 per day, now it's up to 9,000 a day. In N.C., a month ago we were showing about 1,500 cases a day, now up to about 2,000 a day.

Over the past week, the state (Calif) has averaged 8,613 new cases and 91.4 new deaths per day.

I get that, but it's the growth rate that puts Calif. on shaky ground.

California Dems’ Wealth Tax Follows People Who Move Out of the State.

Assemblyman Rob Bonta (D-Oakland) made an appearance on “Cavuto: Coast to Coast” Friday to discuss his Wealth Tax proposal. Bonta told Cavuto the tax “affects about 0.15% of the California population — not the top 10%, not the top 1%, the top .15%, about 30,000 people.”

California Globe reported Bonta held a Zoom press conference Thursday announcing his legislation to tax the state’s wealthiest job creators and innovators – he claimed the “30,400 billionaires” living and working in California. (According to CNBC, there are only 630 billionaires in the entire United States.)

Knowing about the huge outbound migration from California, Cavuto asked what would happen to wealthy people who move out of state. Bonta said tax “avoidance” would not be allowed as California would tax them for the next ten years, despite what state they live in. Bonta said that because they accrued the wealth in California, the state can continue to legally tax it.
