AOC is calling for Andrew Cuomo to get behind a billionaire tax, but he won't do it because of the so-called 'tax flight'
instead — something that doesn't seem possible while Trump is in the White House.
“If they want a tax increase, don’t make New York alone do a tax increase and just have the people move to Connecticut,” Cuomo said on aThursday morning. “If you take people who are highly mobile and you tax them, then they’ll just move next door where the tax treatment is simpler. It has to be done on a federal level.”
Ocasio-Cortez’s position is perhaps made clearest by a 2019 tweet that recently reemerged as the debate around taxing the wealthy reaches a fever pitch. When we say “tax the rich,” we mean nesting-doll yacht rich. For-profit prison rich. Betsy DeVos, student-loan-shark rich.Because THAT kind of rich is simply not good for society, & it’s like 10 people.“When we say ‘tax the rich,’ we mean nesting-doll yacht rich. For-profit prison rich. Betsy DeVos, student-loan-shark rich. Trick-the-country-into-war rich. Subsidizing-workforce-[with]-food-stamps rich,” she wrote.
