If that tank was like one of 50 in the world, oh damn.
I'm guessing it probably was mate, and isn't Florida full of lefties too? 
When a state goes Left, the smart people -- the business owners, the wealthy individuals, ie. the people who pay the vast majority of taxes (due to our 'progressive' tax system, the percentage of your income that the state takes from you gets higher as you earn more) --
-- the job-creators start to leave.
So there are fewer targets for the state to tax. (And fewer jobs too, just ask Greece, Detroit, etc.)
And so, the state has to raise the tax rate on all the dummies who are still around, just to keep level with the taxes the state used to make.
So the first sign of over-taxation is -- businesses leave. Wealthy individuals leave.
The second sign is -- the state has to raise the state income tax to make up the difference.
California has the highest state income tax of all 50 U.S. states. 13.5% state income tax at the top level.
Add the Federal income tax and BAM you're paying 60% in taxes.
California just a couple years back raised the state tax rate from 10% to 13.5%. Lefties are too stupid to reason this out: "If we raise taxes on those who pay the most, we have to prevent them from leaving so they'll have to pay!"
Unlike what the USSR tried to do -- prevent anyone from leaving -- this is a free country, we're mobile, we will move away and create jobs in Texas, Florida, etc. You should not reward business owners by confiscating their money with taxation because they can and will leave.
Toyota just left California and took a ton of jobs with it. Tesla refused to build their new battery plant in California with its thousands of new jobs (they're building the plant in Nevada) -- even though Tesla is home-based here in Silicon Valley. It's a damn shame.
Florida's state income tax is...... ZERO.
Florida is about 50/50 Left wingers and Right wingers. Right down the middle! Perfect.
