"I need people who are high net worth to support the generous social programs that we want to have in our state. Now, there are some patriotic millionaires who stepped up. OK, cut me the checks if you want to be supportive, but maybe the first step should be go down to Palm Beach and see who you can bring back home."

"I have to look at the fact that we are in competition with other states who have less of a tax burden on their corporations and their individuals. And I would say remote work changed everything."

"There were people who could only work in an office in Manhattan and work in New York state. And they were captives to our state, they were going to stay. We saw that that's not the case. Wall Street businesses looking at Texas, they're not going there because they have a nicer governor. They're going there because of the tax rate."

Does she actually understand what she is saying? Does the interviewer?

Also, understand this about these people and their ideology. We live in a constitutional republic where people have mobility to move to other states that have differing approaches to governing their populace. If they had their way, the very policies that have forced people out of New York would be applied at a national level and there would be nowhere to run.

You hear that? You’re not a patriot unless you allow for the government to rob you in order to pay someone else
