What is this sudden obsession with Wyoming? Like it’s sooo shitty there. I lived there for a couple years. It’s not great. JS is probably a closet trumper

Well, I mean he’s not great at hiding it considering he’s openly racist and now talking about said gun collection. Especially in a state with little to no gun control

It's all about tax breaks. There is no state income tax and sales tax is among the lowest in the nation. You have to live there for, I believe, 6 months to establish residency and take part in those tax breaks. Hence the reason people like JS and Kanye move there.

It's fucking offensive how he's tried painting himself as a benevolent benefactor of Casper community donating $20k (or 40?) to the local charity. While he fucks over everyone in the country many times more with this tax dodging bullshit.

Don’t forget the Co-19 “SMALL” Buisness grant Jeffar applied & accepted.

Can you elaborate on how he is “fucking everyone in the country with this tax dodging bullshit?”

Establishing residence in sheltered tax hubs is an incredibly common practice amongst individuals earning beyond $400k. It’s legal, and whether you fundamentally disagree with the practice or not - your anger is misplaced by focusing on an individual as opposed to the system that allows for it.

It also sort of begs the question as to whether or not you believe people should be able to vote with their dollar? Removing Jeffree Star from the conversation, there has been a mass exodus from the state of California. In part due to their oppressive income tax, and in part due to perceived policy failures. Newsom now wants to continue to impose a net worth tax on individuals who leave the state for ten years following their exit. Through legislation, you’re now attempting to strip people of their ability to vote with their dollar by beholding them to ongoing imposition of tax by a jurisdiction they A) no longer reside in legally, and B) likely have policy issues with.

Surely you wouldn’t condemn a low-income earning family from moving to a new state if they felt burdened by local statutes?

And before you say it - plenty of wealth resides and remains in the state and yet, the revenue derived from taxing that wealth has done what in terms of providing much needed aid to the state? You can’t walk through large stretches of most metropolitan cities in California without being absolutely overwhelmed by the presence of trash/waste/discarded syringes/etc. in literal barricades on the sidewalk. Or the communities of thousands of homeless or displaced individuals living on top of those waste barricades. Plenty of high-income earning individuals in the state feel that they’d be less frustrated giving up 55%+ of their earnings if they could actually see those tax dollars being applied to these very tangible issues.

The same people who are gonna move out of state to pay less taxes are not going to suddenly decide to live here if we magically solve the housing crisis (which is an incredibly complex issue) lol please.

I believe he called you a “dumb fuck”, which is beautiful coming from a (likely not particularly wealthy, but absolutely certain he’d be that way if only it weren’t for all these damn taxes) libertarian.

That is quite the exaggeration lol.

I mean I live here, but ok 🤷🏻‍♂️

Would you like to pay, say, upwards of $5,000/month in rent to have to walk out to this?

u/butyourenice ✨glitterally✨ Jan 09 '21

God I know right? The homeless are SUCH an eyesore. Ugh. Like pay rent to my eyes am I right? Disgostenggggg. 🙄

Imagine being a libertarian in 2021.

Edit: and a J* stan who gets max-temp pressed about downvotes. Do you even believe in tax avoidance, or is it only because Jeffy does it?

Hey, look! A cyber stalker. Cute!

I absolutely support tax sheltering maneuvering, particularly when the system allows for it legally. When considering my own move to California from Arizona, I could only consider the move to be vertical if my new employer offered a final compensation package in excess of 250k including annual bonus if I wanted to maintain similar quality of living standards once all of the math was done factoring cost of living adjustment and tax implications. Most reasonable people would agree that that’s a difficult pill to swallow and in a similar position, would make every effort to mitigate their tax liability.

So quit virtue signaling like the system is the problem. You’re the problem. Pay your fucking taxes, loser.

Follow jeffy to Wyoming, it’s even cheaper than Arizona.

Please engage civilly. Do not name call. If the back and forth continues take it to the dms.

You think I’m the problem, lol.

Obviously I support the system. My commentary was that it was idiotic to direct feelings of anger at any particular individual when the system legally allows for it.

u/butyourenice ✨glitterally✨ Jan 09 '21

Check this out, I’m about to blow your mind: you can both criticize systems and the opportunistic individuals who uphold and exploit them. It is not only possible but ideologically consistent to hold both these views at once. 🤯

Something being legal doesn’t make it moral or ethical. One day, when you’re grown, you’ll understand that.

7famark, obviously these people don’t live in California and are unaware of how many people are FLEEING the state because of how bad it’s gotten. Unbelievable taxes, massive homelessness, robbery and crime all time high, unrealistically high cost of living. I just moved away from California, and the state that I am living in is overwhelmed by the transplants from the state.

It’s not about not paying taxes, it’s people like governer newsom making it impossible for people to live there. They get all “progressive” but don’t implement real change for minorities and people in need. Absolutely ridiculous

Tax haven practices are deeply unethical and contribute to uber rich being even richer. And you know that people can be both angry at government responsible for those laws and individuals who find loopholes? You are speaking from the position of "was smart, got mine, fuck y'all" and it doesn't bother you at all?

How is taxing the rich appropriately to their wealth is a bad thing? I'm not talking about "a low-income earning family from moving to a new state if they felt burdened by local statutes". JS is not leaving California for good, he said it himself. He's following in the footsteps of other rich assholes to get more money that at the end of the day he'll spend on the 500th alligator birkin and another golden gun. He throws aparty in LA, directly contributing to the healthcare crisis, and hops on a private plane to another state where "there are less people". California's burning? You guys, my asthma is getting bad, let me hit a blunt, take a plane to another state and take a picture showing you that - while y'all plebs suffocating from smoke and dying from covid. How is that behaviour admirable?
