How about if we eliminated rent seeking and both states required these wealthy individuals to contribute to the society that allowed them to build said wealth in the first place? That's just one of countless possibilities.

“Let’s get Florida to institute a state income tax and more on top for capital gains to match.”?

I mean, yeah? I’d like that. Is it ever going to happen save some overarching federal law standardizing everything? No.

Is moving and no longer paying state taxes for a state you don’t live in anymore “theft”? Also no.
