(FOX Business) "As Californias proposed 'billionaire tax' began gaining momentum late last year, some of the wealthiest people in the country didnt wait for ballots, lawmakers or court challenges they moved. 'Then a couple more flew into Miami, bought properties and closed within seven days,' luxury real estate broker Julian Johnston of The Corcoran Group told Fox News Digital. 'So then it was a tipping point.' "
"According to Johnston who told Fox News Digital that hes currently working with three billionaires to move them from California to South Florida the urgency was driven by staggering potential losses...'One client said, You know, this could be like a $5 billion tax for me,' he recalled. 'So theyre moving because of that.' "

(371 posts)moving government functions, such as 'intelligence gathering' (spying), investigations of phenomena such as UAPs and UFOs, cryptozoology and the like to the 'private sector' is to keep the information gathered secret. If the government does it FOIA applies. If a private contractor does it proprietary information is protected from scrutiny. These companies also become funnels for distributing our treasury to the robber barons. The ones from the 1880's would be so jealous of todays morbidly rich billionaire class of thieves.
