So when you raise taxes on the very wealthy, won’t the very wealthy just move to New Hampshire? What happens when you run out of very wealthy? I remember John Kerry has his yacht docked in a neighboring state because he wanted to avoid the high taxes. Why should the very wealthy pay for transportation if they rarely use it? Shouldn’t that be funded by riders?

A few might move, but most wont. Despite no income tax property taxes are really high in NH. The state is getting its money somewhere.

Plus the advantages of living close to where you need to be when traffic can be just terrible. I worked in an office in Bedford which moved north to Woburn MA half way between the Mass and NH borders. All of a sudden living in NH was an option. I think a lot of people considered it and like 2 moved, one had family up there and one was kinda a libertarian.

Its worth noting NH bid to amazon points out the close proximity to Boston for food, schools and theater. It close then you factor in traffic...
