Mr.

You -- in the media so you can control to -- -- disaster which you have no control over this one.

A tax rebellion has started an amazingly it celebrities firing the first shots of the revolution.

Phil Mickelson is one of the most famous athletes in the world.

He's worked in the vicinity of a hundred million dollars last year he made almost fifty million dollars if he doesn't want to pay California's high taxes.

Tiger Woods is far more famous -- worth far more almost a billion dollars.

In the same week they boxing promoter Bob -- announce that superstar boxing legend Manny Pacquiao is next fight will not be held in America.

The -- makes tens of millions every single fight refuses.

To pay Obama's higher US -- -- taxes he's considering.

Mexico City Asia or Dubai for his next fight can you imagine.

Mid -- -- and Smart businessmen like that would rather choose Mexico City over America because Obama's taxes.

-- days ago Tina Turner went public she's renouncing -- US citizenship to become a Swiss citizen.

Which just happens to have much lower taxes that Obama's America.

-- but these are just the rich celebrities courageous enough to go public.

This is what you call the tip of the ice where the rich are fully in droves the Obama tax and spend Ponzi scheme is imploding.

What changed.

The technology revolution -- made it possible to do business.

From places -- the taxes are lower or nonexistent.

And where the government treats us better it's called competition.

Obama better learned this lesson fast.

Because this tax rebellion spreading to millions of Americans with far smaller incomes or assets and Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson -- -- -- -- or Tina Turner.

And here's the thing.

These celebrities make 20000030000015.

Million a year and they aren't willing to pay get these tax rates are primarily aimed.

At small business owners who make 750000.

Here.

How would they -- -- what do you think they're going to do I think it what is this I think it'll leave the country the signs -- everywhere -- -- tax rebellion has begun.

Look at the latest US census the states with the lowest taxes enjoyed the fastest population growth Nevada.

Texas Florida Arizona Tennessee Georgia.

The list is long and not surprisingly the states that lost the most population high tax states like California new York New Jersey Connecticut Maryland.

And of course Obama's Illinois these states -- Americans are -- -- away from escaping from.

Govern themselves just like Obama wants to govern the whole country -- -- Americans runway in California new York and Illinois will be running away from America.

Yes the co-founder of FaceBook who recently -- American citizenship and left for Singapore with a capital gains taxes.

To leave for drum roll please Austria.

The trickle is turning what -- record numbers of wealthy Americans are giving up their citizenship.

Eight times more that before Obama became president fact.

Of course we already know that only one year after United Kingdom opposed a millionaire's tax two thirds of the millionaires they would disappeared off the tax rolls.

High taxes certainly worked well -- -- up.

You're about to indoor and -- -- up in history.

Triple dip recession the third recession in five years folks there's a name for that it's called -- Great Depression.

We already know the millionaires -- escaping from France.

At a record pace -- high tax rates all imposed by the new Obama clone socialist president of France Ali.

Not even leftists actors like to argue Pardo had been forced to abandon the country they love country they were born and.

The famous -- to load -- request by citizens to leave -- up like 500%.

And then came the -- to drop.

Former French president -- -- he has just announced he's leaving France because of taxes.

High taxes reading chasing away the presidents of the rogue countries high taxes certainly work well in France -- labour minister announced just this week.

That -- is let me quote.

Totally.

They cropped.

His words.

-- said it better myself I understand all of this only too well I'd cut my own escape from Texas story.

I arrived sunny Southern California in 1980 line.

And I fell in love I thought I'd never leave I woke up every morning to walk on the beach to watch dolphin swim in the Pacific from my -- I married a former miss Oklahoma I was in heaven.

Unfortunately.

During the next decade California grew more and more desperate taxes were raised again and again.

There were so many rules regulations and -- and lawyers it became possible to run a business successfully California so why escaped to Las Vegas, Nevada.

Las Vegas is America's version up Monte Carlo it's a place would no state income tax.

No business income tax no capital gains tax no state inheritance tax and the sixteenth -- property tax in America a place with a state constitution -- income taxes.

Limits the time the politicians can meet and welcomes guns in the hands of law abiding citizens that's economic and personal freedom and you -- -- call plays like that.

Haven't but I'm not alone and leaving California during the past decade over one point three million residents escape California when I get up the income taxes property taxes.

Business taxes and of course the payroll and income taxes for my business.

Is this and my hundred employees.

Chasing -- -- probably cost California about two million dollars in lost revenues.

Now multiply that times thousands of other.

High net worth big income business owners.

But among the one point three million -- and that accounts -- California's perpetually broke insolvent desperate and it's functional.

You know what they say about pigs he can't slaughtered California certainly a pig.

Just like the pigs in Europe Portugal.

Italy Ireland Greece and Spain they all change the way the richest citizens of business owners and now they have nothing left their tax base is destroyed it -- and -- -- that list.

They are drowning.

This new tax increase in California just -- last November will kill their tax base to California just officially became.

Our version of Greece and if we let Obama.

And the big up the progressives have their way California CF story and Europe's tragic story will be America's CNN tragic story Obama's killing the American dream.

Phil Mickelson was only vocal arising what millions of -- owners in America are thinking right now.

-- -- When they say taxes are good or fear or the price you've got to pay for civilized society big government doesn't lead to a better life -- -- that leads to a miserable life.

I'm living proof how to join a much better quality of life in Nevada with lower taxes that I ever lived in New York -- California here's the reality.

The high tech revolution -- killed progressive -- socialist dream we are trapped anymore.

You -- taxes the debt simply because you don't -- us we have iphones and ipads and -- -- them laptops that satellite TV we can do business from anywhere in the world.

To a beach Sydney and a mountaintop in -- -- a -- New Zealand to a luxury high rise in Hong Kong.

It's called freedom.

Sorry mr.
