I'm glad if I'm going to pay someone for not doing anything it's a local person so I can see how much my money is helping them at the country club I can't get into.

Perhaps you can gaze wistfully at their yacht you can't hope to afford in the local marina you can't afford moorage at too!

Fun times for all.

I mean, I'm not really trying to defend them. Just saying that having the wealth local gives a better chance of taxing it locally.

I'm game for how this week help local folks, though. My gut is it will just be fewer rich people at the very top of these companies.
