Cool, your N=1 anecdote completely invalidates all the statistical research in that area.

Since the article is about state taxes, and the OP is talking about national taxes, I don’t think they’re mutually exclusive.
N=1 isn't an argument either. I'm simply saying what a lot of people in my situation also thinks. It's just sensible that you don't stay because you like paying taxes. You stay where you are because of family and friends. To say that it doesn't influence people decision is deceiving.

Calling BS on that right there
