I see you are a different person. Why not move to one of those states if they are so much better? Why do you live here?

I mean there must be some things you like about it here to want to maintain a property and pay the taxes that you do?

I realize that it’s hard to grasp, but the taxes pay for things. So while you claim Florida as residency (and I hope you live there for the required number of days every year), the rest of us are paying for the public services that you use while you’re here. Your property taxes on your beach house cover some, but you aren’t a full contributor since you presumably pay no income tax to the state.

It’s even more interesting that you’re a person fresh in the labor force? So you’ve only been working for a year or less, moved from a big city back home to RI? And now you’re talking about how much better the jobs are in Florida and Texas. But you don’t want to go work in either of those states? Do you have a job here or do your parents take care of the bills and the multiple houses? Did Boston not work out?
