With your response, I'm reminded of a few quotes from The Sovereign Individual:
Global competition will also tend to increase the income earned by the most talented individuals in each field, wherever they live, much as it does now in professional athletes.
This means that you will no longer be obliged to live in a high-tax jurisdiction in order to earn high income. In the future, when most wealth can be earned anywhere, and even spent anywhere.
Taxing capacity will plunge by 50 to 70 percent. This will tend to make smaller jurisdictions more successful. Within years, let alone decades, it will be widely understood that anyone of talent could accumulate a much higher net worth and enjoy a better life by abandoning high-tax nation states.

No worries. Must confess I pulled them from someone else's summary of the book here on SN. Probably won't be the last time I do that, but it's one of my favourite bookmarks.
