O.K. Let's say you flee one state that's almost unlivable because of high taxes and overregulation. You move to another state because of high taxes and overregulation in your old state. What sense is there to still vote for virtually every new tax and regulation like it was the greatest thing since sliced bread? Taxes and regulations tend to stick around forever, so once people fowl the nest with them, it tends to stay ruined even after the same people flee to another place to repeat the process.
