A very short one today as I spent the morning moving one of our son's last odds and ends back from his successful college years.
Hillary Clinton recently said she would impose a tax on companies who left the country. It would be a punitive one to flog them for going somewhere else. Someone likened it to the tax the Nazis placed on Jews who wanted to emigrate.
I thought that a bit much, but it did put me in mind of East Germany. Instead of making the country a place people wanted to live, they turned it into a giant prison camp. In this case, the barbed wire would take the form of high taxes.
Why do these progressive workers' paradise things always end up with walls and guards?

Because otherwise people "vote with their feet".
