The amount of whining is phenomenal. Shut up and pay your taxes.

“brain drain” is always used by right wing and liberalists as an excuse to reduce tax. The only people that really “drains” are the greedy crooks. Calling it “brain drain” just shows what they think of themselves…

University professors, engineers, and doctors (those who are not crooks) will not leave, they have roots at home and will not leave.

And those professionals often aren’t getting the majority of their income from capital gains.

Or often any of it, until retirement. If you actually do work for a living, you don’t have time to be constantly shifting assets around the market.

You hit the nail on the head. This is precisely a “fountainhead” fantasy for self styled big brains who are so smart that they don’t understand that they live in a society.

Very well said, and a vastly under-reported issue at the root of many of our civilization’s problems
