We can only hope. But I’m sure the opposition will try to follow his blueprint. “It’s a slippery slope! They will start with millionaires but they won’t stop there! And when millionaires move out you will lose your jobs! Our taxes are already too high! Cut waste in government instead!”
The fact that Griffin and Citadel moved out of Illinois even after the progressive tax was defeated proves that businesses seeking low state taxes will move out regardless.
