"Time will teach her, including us, many things, some that we once thought we didn't have at all, but later found that it really existed, some that we cared about very much, but later found that it was not that important at all..."

Andy looked at Charlize with a sarcastic smile on her face, shook her head and said lightly. Seeing the expression on her face slightly changed, she lowered her head and cut a piece of beef with the knife and fork in her hand and put it into her mouth.

"I never thought of controlling you. This time I asked you to take Xiao Laura to Hawaii because..."

Speaking of this, Andy looked at the maid, reached out to wave his hand, and said, "You guys go down first."

"Okay, sir." The two maids in the restaurant bowed slightly and left the restaurant.

Andy then continued to look at Charlize, who was frowning slightly, and said in a low voice: "I don't know if you have seen the swine flu virus found in Mexico reported in the newspaper. According to the information I have received, someone has been infected and can spread between people. I am worried that it will become another avian flu. California and Mexico are separated by a wall. I am worried that California will become a severely affected area of ​​infection."

"hiss"

Charlize, who was originally frowning, couldn't help but change his expression when he heard Andy's explanation. She definitely remembered the panic caused by the avian flu.

"Oh my God... why didn't you tell me the truth earlier!"

Looking at Charlize who was nervous, Andy shook his head slightly and said, "Don't be so nervous. I'm also preventing trouble before it happens. I don't know what will happen. However, whether it's my overreaction or a false alarm, it will really spread. It's necessary for us to stay away from California and the mainland of the United States for the time being. What do you think?"

"Nonsense, of course I have to leave, but can Hawaii be safe?" Charlize was a little anxious. After all, nothing is more important than Little Laura's safety.

"I have prepared a beach estate in Kauai Island, Hawaii, with a medical room. You go over here and take the whole team. I have someone prepare all the anti-flu virus medicines, at least there can be isolated outsiders, and then see how things are going, we are deciding what the next step is.

Before this, no matter what, be careful, you and Laura go first, and I will fly there as soon as possible." Andy knew that there was no need to say anything more. Just look at Charlize's expression now, and she would not stay in California if there was a big deal now.

After lunch, Andy took Little Laura to play, and Charlize, who was nervous, began to direct and mobilize everyone. Because he didn't know how long he would live in Hawaii, he could only pack all kinds of Little Laura and her own common items and prepare to take them all to Hawaii, including three dogs and two koalas adopted by Charlize.

For a moment, the entire Shanhai Manor became in chaos.

At around 3 pm, everything is ready.

"Okay, the plane is ready. Call me when it's time." Andy stood by the convoy who was ready to set off, hugged Charlize, who was holding little Laura with one hand and said with a kiss.

"I understand, you can leave as soon as possible, baby, see you dad." Charlize nodded and said to little Laura.

hug"

Little Laura, wearing a pink sweatshirt, opened her mouth and kept struggling forward with her hands. She looked like she was looking for Andy to hug her, almost melting Andy's heart. Without saying a word, she hugged Little Laura and kissed her face a lot.

'"Gee..." It seemed that Andy's stubble was a little itchy. Little Laura lowered her head to avoid Andy's kiss while holding Andy's tie tightly with her little hands, making a silver bell-like laughter.

Charlize's cold and pretty face was filled with a sweet smile. Looking at the intimacy between father and daughter, Andy kept making faces to tease the little Laura, making the little Laura laugh endlessly. After more than ten minutes, Charlize reached out to hug the little Laura and said to Andy: "Okay, don't keep making her laugh, it's time to leave, baby, wave to dad, goodbye..."

Little Laura smiled and raised her little hand. After shaking it twice in the air, Charlize smiled and said to Andy again. Then he bent down and sat in the car with a small Laura in his arms. He first put the little Laura on the child seat. After fixing it, Andy helped close the door. Charlize lowered the window and said to Andy: "You should pay attention to yourself, we are waiting for you in Hawaii."

"Well, it's time to call." Andy lay on the car window, and then kissed the little Laura who was staring at him with big eyes and turned to look at him. After Charlize Honghun kissed him, he took a step back and waved to watch the convoy slowly drove out of Shanhai Manor.

Da da da da da

"Boss, the helicopter is here."

Andy nodded to Martin, "Let's go." After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the lawn on the courtyard. The whirlwind from the helicopter propeller blew the lawn like waves, and Andy's suit was also blown.

"This is simply the last straw that broke the camel's back..."

"I love New York and don't want to leave here. But a little change changed the balance of income and income. It made me think, is this city where I want to live? This is driving people away with taxes. I'm considering moving to Connecticut..."

"Increasing personal income tax will make it more difficult for New York State's economy to recover. From a positive perspective, the implementation period is not the five years that were rumored to have been popular. However, this time the personal income tax collection has increased significantly, which will have an impact on the purchasing power of the person being collected."

After dinner, Andy lazily lay on the sofa, watching the news on TV, and couldn't help but shake her head. At this time, Scarlett, wearing a nightgown, walked over with two cups of coffee, sat next to Andy, and delivered coffee.

"Did they really decide to impose a tax on the rich?"

"Well, Governor Patterson has always emphasized that he would balance the government budget deficit by increasing personal income tax when he had to, but he finally nodded his agreement, which to some extent reflects the sharp decline in the fiscal situation in New York State. However, this time the tax collection of the rich will undoubtedly trigger domestic capital flight and will also cause wealthy people to leave New York State. Moreover, as far as I know, California also has a tax increase plan, which almost always locks in high-income earners again, preparing to promote the taxation of the rich, Hollywood tycoons and Manhattan stockbrokers will face impacts in the future."

After holding the coffee for two sips, Andy put the coffee cup on the table, put the hand around Scarlett's waist, lay on the sofa, smelling the fragrance of the golden hair, and said lightly.

This time, the wealthy tax proposed by New York State will add two tax groups based on the current personal income tax collection plan. The tax rate for those with annual income exceeding $500,000 will rise to 8.97%, which is the same as the highest tax rate in New Jersey. The tax rate for those with annual income exceeding 300,000 will rise to 7.85%. Moreover, this tax increase plan has received some praise.

Of course, this acclaim mainly comes from the working class and the midfield class. The rich are ready to vote with their feet. Since they cannot control the policy, they decided to stage it. If they don’t have a play of staying here, they will move out of New York State. After all, this kind of wealthy tax also faces a considerable amount of opposition, and it is impossible for all states in the United States to learn and promote it.

"You don't seem to be worried?" Scarlett was originally a New Yorker, and naturally he was also the person levied on the rich tax this time. She originally thought that California would be better, but when Andy said that California was also preparing to collect, she frowned a little.

"Haha, I'm not worried. I don't have much income personally. The salary I paid to me by each company, so I asked them to collect. The other money is the company's money, and they have all been properly avoided. This rich tax has little impact on me. The key is that you big stars and professional managers on Wall Street are the main targets of being collected." Andy was not worried about the impact of this rich tax on him at all.

"Besides, in the 1920s, France also imposed a tax on wealthy people. As a result, in order to protect its own interests, the rich quickly sold government bonds and assets valuated in francs and exchanged them for assets valuated in pounds or dollars, thereby transferring their assets abroad. In the worst period, the French government changed a finance minister on average for five weeks to deal with the crisis of serious capital flight.

In this case, the French government can only make it clear that capital gains tax will no longer be collected, and the capital that fled abroad will return to France, and a storm caused by the "rich tax" will finally subside.

This time, it is unknown whether the "rich tax" plan for New York and California will repeat the old path of the French government more than 70 years ago. Haha, but capital flight can almost be concluded that it will inevitably occur in the chain reaction of imposing "rich tax".

"Will you do that too?"

"Haha, I didn't put the eggs in a basket from the beginning. If necessary, I can transfer them out at any time!" Andy smiled.
Chapter completed!
