Disagree strongly on taxes. Moving from CA to WA, could save a family making $100,000 nearly $1,000 per month.

ca.gov says state taxes for someone making $100k are $6,466.00. That's less than half your claim.

Not to mention states without income tax fund themselves somehow. There are other taxes which partially offset the lack of state income tax.

CA governments, city and state, have more debt (unfunded defines benefit pension benefits) than WA does though, so in the future the taxes will continue rising.

Yup. I just moved from CA to WA. It was like an instant ~10% raise of state taxes alone.
