Any loss of tax revenue from them will be borne from the rest of us, so more taxes... death and taxes, the two certainties

We had the warning in 2006-9 but central banks ignored it and just added new worthless debt to existing worthless debt to create worthless debt squared – an obvious recipe for disaster. - Egon von Greyerz

Rest assured it's never a good sign when millionaires leave en masse. Economies thrive when there's available capital (think jobs, businesses). Shrinking disposable wealth leads to atrophy of communities. 

Taxation is just one *insanely inefficient and often misguided* way of spreading that money. 

 

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

Not necessarily talking about *their* businesses mate. Any local business. They spend on a lot of things: services, flowers, restaurants, you name it. Every nice business you have in your community is at risk of closing shop when the money ups the sticks and moves away.

Meanwhile in France, looks like Macron on third place after the first round of polling. Might be gold up a notch in the morn. :ph34r:

We're witnessing this in almost every town these days.

Only charity shops and Turkish barbers left on the High Street.

Even the pubs have closed down.

My former hometown is becoming like a Ghost Town.

 

Technically, alcohol is a solution..

Exactly. And how much taxes do either of those pay, one wonders....

I'm from Aldershot. It's a coin toss if it's better nowadays with no shops or back in the day with the squaddies.

Have you seen the state of Cornwall these days?

It's been a while since I've been but YouTube presents a grim view, certainly not the millionaire playground and beach tourism it once was.

Any Kernowyons like to confirm or counter?
