"the argument about state/local taxes, because it's not the same thing."
Yes it is. You grew up using these services; you fail to remember that the services you DID use to become successful were funded largely by other people before you.
You need to get over yourself already and cut a huge check to the city and state of your birth, because you owe it to them. You must give back already.
After all. Taxes aren't about generating sufficient revenue to run state services that you currently use & depend upon. They are about honoring past municipalities for blessing us at one time with their services; we must therefore tithe appropriately.
