如果最富有的纽约人逃离纽约，将带走1330亿美元的财富

纽约独立预算办公室的最新数据显：2018年收入前1%的纽约人缴纳了49亿美元的所得税，占纽约市当年征收的全部所得税的42.5%。而这49亿美元仅来自38700位纽约人，约占全市总人口的0.46%。

这些占比不到1%的超级富有的纽约人，收入却达到1333亿美元。可是2020年受疫情影响，纽约市百万富翁和亿万富翁的数量减少，许多人暂时搬走或已经永久搬出纽约。这导致纽约市政府税收减少，学校因入学率下降出现亏损、城中房屋空置率增多等问题。

纽约市长形容这些富人为 ：“只会同安乐却不能共患难的酒肉朋友”（fair weather friends），他还建议给富人们加税。

A new report from Bloomberg found that the top 1% of New Yorkers paid $4.9 billion in income taxes in 2018 — 42.5% of all the income tax collected by the city that year, according to new data from New York's Independent Budget Office. That $4.9 billion came from only 38,700 New Yorkers — around 0.46% of the city's total population. Overall, those ultrawealthy New Yorkers accounted for $133.3 billion in income. In 2018, the median income in New York City was $63,799.

That number may already be a high-water mark for the city, as New York City saw residents' wealth drop across the board in 2020, its number of millionaires and billionaires decrease, and many New Yorkers moving out, at least temporarily, as Business Insider reported in March. While some have since returned, others have permanently relocated.

In August, New York's mayor called the wealthy leaving the city "fair weather friends" and said they would be replaced by newcomers. He also proposed a higher tax on wealthy residents.     source

他既然知道富人是酒肉朋友就更应该知道给富人加税不但不会增加收入还会进一步让富人离开。

他倒也不是脑子不好，他只是为底层选民开心而已

哎....纽约也要面临和硅谷一样的命运了....不过很奇怪，住在NY C的富人似乎只有Trump和Bloomberg...其他富豪都住在外面...
