MYFOXNY.COM - New York Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver is reportedly pitching a plan for an increased "millionaire's tax" aimed at 75-85 thousand New Yorkers making $1 million or more a year. Political columnist Fred Dicker , who appeared on Wednesday's Good Day New York, says Silver secretly proposed a $1 billion tax hike on the highest income earners to Gov. Paterson. http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/ny-assembly-looks-at-millionaires-tax-20100526

People who make that much money can afford to own a second home in income-tax-free Florida which they claim is their primary residence.

In fact, with condos in Florida selling for one-tenth the price of a similar-sized condo in Manhattan, why the hell doesn't everyone move there?

They'd have to spend there more than half the year which is difficult if their kids are in school here.

Pols often make proposals knowing that they sound nice but have no chance of being enacted.
