Jeff Bezos, the CEO of Amazon, has moved to Florida from Washington, which allows him to save hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes. Florida has no taxes on capital gains, unlike Washington, which has imposed a 7% capital gains tax. Bezos has already saved $288 million in taxes and could ultimately save at least $610 million when all his stock sales go through. This move highlights how tax policies in different states can impact the redistribution of wealth across the country.
