Benjamin JarosGUEST
we have to deal with leap years, but 183 days you reside in the state of California.

Benjamin JarosGUEST
But you realize income when you earn and then you have also income that's realized when you sell.

Benjamin JarosGUEST
And now it wants to apply that definition of residency, which has a specific meaning in income tax case law, to one day in time.

Benjamin JarosGUEST
The state now has to take the extra step to, to fund that population anyway.

Benjamin JarosGUEST
So a good, uh, a question would be, are they actually going to do that? They're running deficits anyways, so we'll leave that there.

Benjamin JarosGUEST
The second thing that you just talked about, Will, is something called provider tax limitations.

Benjamin JarosGUEST
So the last 60 billion or so of the $156 billion is from provider tax limitations, which most people's eyes glaze over when they hear about this.

Benjamin JarosGUEST
uh the main there's uh between the filing date by the proponents and the snapshot date of who would be due for the tax that was when an initial 500 ish billion dollars left the state so that would be you know headlined by sergey brand larry page peter teal among others and then shortly after that mark zuckerberg left in february adding another nearly $200 billion plus to the total there.

Benjamin JarosGUEST
And there are plenty of other stealth departures that get you close to your number there.

Benjamin JarosGUEST
Those tech innovators are the backbone of the state's economy and who they employ.

Benjamin JarosGUEST
And in the last Since 2000, the state has lost about $500 billion and about $5 billion in tax revenue.
