American Fortune Life

“Time teaches her, including us, a lot of things that we thought we didn't have at all, and then it turns out that it does exist, and some that we care so much about, and then it turns out that it doesn't matter at all... ”

Andy looked at Charlize with a ridiculous smile on his face, shook his head and said softly, seeing a slight change in the expression on her face, and lowered his head and sliced a piece of beef into his mouth with a knife and fork in his hand.

“I never wanted to control you, and this time you took little Laura to Hawaii because... ”

Speaking of which, Andy looked at the maid and put his hand around her and said, "Go ahead. ”

“Yes, sir.” Two maids left the restaurant in a slight debt.

Andy just kept looking at Charlize with a slight frown, and he kept his voice down and said, “I don't know if you've seen a newspaper report about a swine flu virus found in Mexico that, according to information I've received, has been infected and can spread among people, and I'm afraid it's going to be another bird flu, and there's only one wall between California and Mexico, and I'm afraid California's going to be a contagious disaster zone. ”

“Hiss--”

Charlize, whose eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, heard Andy's explanation that her face had changed dramatically and that she was definitely fresh in her memory of the panic caused by avian influenza.

“Oh, my... Why didn't you tell me the truth earlier? ”

Looking at the nervous Charlize, Andy shook his head slightly and said, "Don't be so nervous, I'm also prevented from happening, I don't know what's going to happen, but whether I overreact, have a false alarm, or really spread, stay away from California, America, for the time being, is necessary for us. What do you think of that? ”

“Bullshit, of course, has to leave, but can Hawaii be safe?” Charlize is in a bit of a hurry. After all, there is nothing more important than the safety of little Laura.

“I've got a beachfront estate in Cute Island, Hawaii, with a medical room, and this time, with the whole team, I've got all the antiinfluenza drugs ready, at least there to isolate the outsiders, and look at what's going on, and we're deciding on the next step.

Until then, no matter what, be careful, you and little Laura go first, and I will fly there as soon as possible. ”Andy knew there was nothing more to say, just the look on Charlize's face now, and now there was something big going on, and she wouldn't stay in California.

After lunch, Andy played with Little Laura, and the nervous Charlize started directing everyone, because he didn't know how long he was staying in Hawaii, he had to pack all of Little Laura's commonly used items and prepare to take them all to Hawaii, including Charlize's adopted three dogs and two koalas.

For a while, the whole hillside estate became a chicken dog jump.

Around 3: 00 p.m., everything is ready.

“Okay, the plane's ready. Call me when you get there.” Andy stood next to the convoy ready to go and said to Charlize, who was holding Little Laura in one hand and hugging her kiss Wen.

“I get it. You leave as soon as you can, BABY. Bye, Dad.” Charlize nodded and said to little Laura.

“baba, hug--”

Little Laura, wearing a pink sweatshirt, opened her mouth and kept earning money with her hands open, looking for Andy to hug her, almost melted Andy's heart. Without saying anything, she hugged Little Laura and kissed her face a lot.

'“Giggle...” It seemed to be a little itchy when Andy had some stubborn stubbornness. Little Laura lowered her head to avoid Andy's intimate wen, grabbing Andy's tie tightly with her little hand and laughing like a silver bell.

Charlize smiled with a sweet smile on her cold face, watching the two fathers and daughters get along, Andy kept making fun of Little Laura and making Little Laura laugh. A few minutes later, Charlize reached out and hugged Little Laura and said to Andy, "Okay, don't make her laugh all the time, we should go, Baby, wave goodbye to Dad. ”

Little Laura smiled and lifted her little hand. After shaking twice in the air, Charlize smiled and Andy came back to wen. No, that's when she bent over and sat in the car with Little Laura. First, she put Little Laura in the children's seat. After it was secured, Andy helped close the door, Charlize lowered the window and said to Andy, “Watch yourself, we're waiting for you in Hawaii. ”

“Well, it's time to call.” Andy lay down in the window and stared into his eyes, turning around and watching his little Laura kiss, and then after Charlize Red Chun kissed him, he took a step back and watched as the convoy slowly drove out of Mountain Sea Estate.

Daddy-daddy-daddy--

“Boss, the helicopter is coming. ”

Andy nodded to Martin, "Let's go.” After that, Andy's suit was hunted by a whirlwind of helicopter propellers blowing the lawn like a wave as he headed to the courtyard.

“This is the last straw to crush a camel... ”

“I love New York and don't want to leave here. But a slight change changed the balance of payments. And that made me think, is this the city I want to live in? It's a tax drive away. I'm thinking about moving to Connecticut... ”

“Raising taxes will make it harder for the New York State economy to recover. On a positive note, the implementation period was not the five years that had previously prevailed. However, this significant increase in individual taxes will have an impact on the purchasing power of the target. ”

After dinner, Andy lay lazy on the couch, watching the news on TV, and shook his head, when Scarlett, dressed in a nightdress, walked over with two cups of coffee, sat next to Andy and served coffee.

“Did they really decide to levy a rich man's tax? ”

“Well, Governor Patterson had previously stressed that balancing the government's budget deficit through additional taxes was a last resort, but eventually nodded in agreement, reflecting, to some extent, a sharp shift in New York State's fiscal position. However, this tax on the rich will undoubtedly trigger a flight of domestic capital while leaving New York State for the rich, and as far as I know, California has a tax hike that will almost identically re-target the higher-income earners, prepare to push the wealthy taxes, and top income communities like Hollywood tycoons and Manhattan stockbrokers will face shocks in the future. ”

After two sips of coffee, Andy put the coffee cup on the table, held Scarlett's waist and laid back on the couch, smelling the fresh scent of her blonde hair, he said faintly.

This New York State wealthy tax will add two additional tax groups to the existing individual income tax collection scheme, with annual revenues of more than $500,000 rising to 8.97 per cent, the highest tax rate in New Jersey. The tax rate rises to 7.85 per cent for those earning more than 300,000 a year. And this tax hike is getting some good voices.

Of course, this good voice comes mainly from the wage and middle classes, and the wealthy people are ready to vote with their feet. Since they can't dictate the policy, they decided to do it. They don't leave their grandfather's code here to move out of New York State. After all, this wealthy tax also faces a considerable opposition wave, and it's impossible for all states of the United States to learn how to promote it.

“You don't seem worried?” Scarlett, who was originally a New Yorker and naturally a recipient of this wealthy tax, thought California would be better, but when Andy said California was ready to collect, she frowned a little.

“Oh, I'm not worried, I don't have a lot of personal income, that's what the companies pay me, let them collect it, the other money is the company's money, and all the other money is reasonably tax avoided, this rich man tax has little effect on me, the key is you big stars and Wall Street professional managers are the main targets of the levy.” Andy is not worried about the impact of this wealthy tax on him.

“Moreover, in the 1920s, France introduced a wealthy people's tax, which resulted in wealthy people selling treasury bonds and assets valued in francs quickly in exchange for assets valued in pounds sterling or United States dollars in order to protect their interests, thereby transferring assets abroad. During the worst period, the French Government replaced, on average, a finance minister for five weeks to cope with the serious flight of capital.

Under such circumstances, the French Government could only revert to France after it had expressly ceased to levy capital gains taxes, and a wind wave triggered by the "wealthy tax” had finally subsided.

This time, the throw-out of the New York State and California "Wealth Tax" program will repeat the old path taken by the French government more than 70 years ago, heh, but capital flight can almost certainly be seen as a chain reaction to the imposition of "Wealth Tax". ”

“Will you do the same? ”

“Oh, I didn't put the eggs in a basket from the start, I can transfer them out whenever I need them!” Andy laughed.
