IIRC it's the corporate tax rate that is the draw, and why Apple had billions stashed away there, unable to shift it without incurring massive tax charges.

True, but has low property tax as well. Also, doubt high net worth individuals keep very much in personal assets.
FFS what would know.
I went there once, it was quite pleasant, the houses seemed big and everything looked freshly painted. It was a bit like the set of the Truman Show.

The opposite of the kind of place I like to have a house in, as you'd know if you'd visited. I rather like benign neglect & shabby chic, and mild perpetual disorder. So I think I'll give Delaware a miss.

Doubt that is a concern for those who were happy to live in NY.

Seems that the NYT has 'legitimate concerns' about women.

This looks like the full thing. It was a podcast. This is the transcript.

It's interesting that the snap shot headline makes it look like Ross Douthat is saying women ruined the workplace when in the transcript he is the host pushing back against some of the points the 2 female guests are making.

Texas re-districting gerrymandering looks like it may backfire on the Republicans as the Trump vote in the presidential election relied on the 24% 'Latino vote'. That 24% has swung the other way.
4 of the 5 districts will have a plurality of mainly Hispanics.
Whilst it's too late to reverse the process in Texas, other states have halted their redistricting plans in the wake of Tuesday's elections. (Kansas, Utah and Indiana)
To rub salt into the wounds, in Virginia (now very blue) democrats have plans to redistrict the state.
