But at the last minute, he <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/03\/23\/tyreek-hill-traded-to-dolphins-as-jets-lose-out-on-chiefs-star\/\">took his talents to South Beach as a Miami Dolphin<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Mocking the Jets is always easy, but this one\u2019s not their fault. Hill says he had to make a \u201cgrown-up decision\u201d: \u201cIt was very close to happening. Just those state taxes, man.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/10\/03\/tyreek-hill-picked-dolphins-over-jets-due-to-state-taxes\/\">As The Post\u00a0<\/a>reported, \u201cFlorida has no state income taxes. New Jersey has a marginal income tax of 10.75% for individuals making more than $5 million per year. Hill is slated to make $30 million per year on his contract, and his state income taxes if he played for the Jets would total about $3 million per year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If the wide receiver chose to live in New York, he\u2019d pay about the same in taxes: 10.30% at his level with a supplemental tax because he makes more than $107,650. And that\u2019s before even getting into New York City taxes.<\/p>\n<p>For a long time, states like New York and New Jersey could get away with these high taxation rates. But with so much in decline, from public safety to schools, the numbers just don\u2019t make sense anymore. Why would a professional athlete lose more than 10% of his pay to live in a state with plunging standards?<\/p>\n<p>In 2019, <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2019\/02\/09\/new-jersey-wants-to-tax-the-rain\/\">New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy said<\/a>, \u201cIf taxes are your issue, then New Jersey\u2019s probably not your state.\u201d The line was used in a popular political ad by his Republican opponent Jack Ciattarelli in 2021. Ciattarelli lost by fewer than 100,000 votes, in a deep-blue state of nearly 9 million people. Taxes, it seems, are an issue for many.<\/p>\n<p>New York\u2019s governor, meanwhile, has noticed the migration out of her state to Florida and has <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/08\/25\/kathy-hochuls-call-for-5-4m-republicans-to-leave-new-york-is-dangerous\/\">decided to lean into it<\/a>. Talking about Republicans, Gov. Kathy Hochul said, \u201cJust jump on a bus and head down to Florida where you belong, OK? Get out of town. Because you do not represent our values. You are not New Yorkers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>States like New York and New Jersey have to decide how much they\u2019re willing to lose while their terrible politicians push people out the door \u2014 and what it means to them.<\/p>\n<p>These states forfeit more than just a winning season for their football team.<\/p>\n<p>If high taxes are pushing out multimillionaires, what\u2019s happening with people with far fewer resources? People who may have been committed to their home state but found that paying astronomical rates for very little in return has stopped making sense.<\/p>\n<p>If an NFL franchise is having trouble attracting players, what\u2019s happening with regular, old companies, which produce so much of a state\u2019s revenue, in their quest to find the best people? A few months ago, the <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/06\/23\/ken-griffins-citadel-moving-to-miami-from-chicago\/\">financial firm Citadel bolted from Chicago<\/a> because it was having trouble attracting talent to the city.
