None of which has anything to do with:

Tommy question - "What complete idiot would remain in California with a 
15% tax rate when Texas or Florida or Arizona have zero?"

Tommy answer - "I was born here and I am not going to be driven out by a 
Democrat government importing murderers, thieves and aiding and abetting 
crimes of every sort."
