I am giving 1000 to 1 odds that he will be calling in sick for his next trip after having no problems flying for double time feel free to parlay the 1000 into his turn after the 4 day he calls in sick for How Dallas harasses pilots who call in sick is beyond me. I guess when you pick up during the picks you are a golden child . |

How Dallas harasses pilots who call in sick is beyond me. I guess when you pick up during the picks you are a golden child . Dude calls in sick for a day on about half of his blocks, I am assuming once he is number one on the list. Total shady move. I am all for creative use of sick time, but not at the expense of other pilots. That's a total d!ck move. Just call in sick for a regular trip like a freaking man. But yeah, the company has zero room to harass anyone about sick usage while these dudes are around and tolerated. |

We must be talking about different guys. I know you would not pick up at a base while they are out picketing. That is about as low as a person can go . You are correct, he does not gas. |

And some states you think would be cheaper, aren't.
Move from VA to NJ. My property tax, on my house went up. That's it. Everything else went down. Income tax, effective rate lower (not by much, but 5.6% vs 5.85%) Property tax on the house, about double as a percentage. ($6k on a house that I sold for $600k, NJ $20k on a $1.1M house) Not paying $10,000 in taxes on vehicles I already paid tax on when I bought them. City of VA Beach was getting $5000 for my pickup, $2800 for my wife's Expedition, $1100 for my airport beater (25 year old pickup), $1500 for my camper, $300 for one motorcycle, $400 for another motorcyle. I'm actually paying about $1145 a year less in taxes, in total here in NJ. But I have a much larger, much nicer house, on 9 acres vs my 1400sqft 3/2 brick ranch on 1/4 acre. If I had gotten a comparable house, it would have been far cheaper. And yeah, TX really gets you on property taxes. I've had more than a few friends/relative go there, buy something, then start freaking out because the ISD, MUD and other taxes go up as neighborhoods get built out. That sounds like your property tax is around 2%? Isn't that pretty high? . |

Isn't that pretty high? . In Virginia it was around 1, but you also paid annual property tax on cars, trucks, boats, motorcycles, rvs, trailers, office equipment etc. So my property tax in VA ended up around 2.6% of my homes value per year, but it was on house, cars, motorcycles, etc. And the fanciest thing I own is my wife's Expedition. It's an XLT with leather seats. Not even a lariat, so it's not like I was *****in about taxes on a Land Rover or a Mercedes. My pickup, granted it's a large F-450 Diesel Dually. I paid.$67k under Ford X-plan. 73k sticker. $5000 a year in personal property tax. Cloth seats. No carpet. Only options were towing related. Im paying about $4k a year more in total prop tax in NJ, but went from a 1450sqft 3/2 on a 1/4 acre lot to 6200sqft on 3 acres with a 6 acre conservation lot between me and the pond. NJ does not tax vehicles after sale. |

But that's school, fire, county, local, every tax that is paid to the township/county/state other than income / sales taxes. When I owned a house in Corpus Christi it was north of 2.5% with MUD and ISD taxes and I didn't live in a fancy part of town. |

https://www.voronoiapp.com/_next/ima...p&w=1920&q=100 it’s rather impossible to make a comparison from california to other states in terms of property tax because of the distortion caused by prop 13. you have $5m homes with property taxes lower than $300k starter homes. |

You can contact tax foundation for more detailed breakdown than what they provided in that article, but you're right, Texas is terrible nobody else move here (especially those senior to me) ! I just looked at my recent total property tax bill and it's effectively 1% when you include everything. The new(ish) laws and homestead increases helped knock them back down in recent years. . |

Move from VA to NJ. Income tax, effective rate lower (not by much, but 5.6% vs 5.85%) Its nice when some states and municipalities don't raises taxes unabated as they do in the Northeast......but don't get to comfortable in Florida or Tennessee.........we humans we recreate what we flee......its in our nature no matter how irrational.

(See don't make here there) Effective tax rate is under 6. Don't confused top marginal with Effective. Married, no kids. Own house. Some disabled veteran exemptions. Just did my full incom, no writeoffs. Off the NJ.gov form, works to 5.5% Off form NJ-1040 Table B Married Couple For line 41 taxable income 150-500k, Tax owed is (Income * .0637 ) - 4042.5 Worst case, my whole W2 is taxable (it's not, I have deductions) $477,600 * .0637 = $30,423.12 $30,423.12 - $4042.5 = $26,380.62 $26,380.62 ÷ $477,600 = 5.52% |
Now for VA. Per the books, the forst $18k is tax free but they've been trying to impute disability as income, I'm currently fighting them on two years of this.
Tax = AGI -$18,000 * 5.85% ($477,600-$18,000)*.0585 = $26,886.60 that's 5.63% effective tax rate. |

doesn’t apply unless your net worth is $15m/$30m or higher in the exit year |

What are you proposing to replace it with? Complaining is easy. It’s working well for me. 4k property tax on a 1.1 million property I’ve owned and lived in for years. You’re leaving out some details such as it has to be your primary residence.

That sounds like a non answer to the question. I’m with you on the next generation but simply removing the prop creates a bunch of new issues. |
