Philadelphia Phillies should thank Donald Trump for their newest addition… Bryce Harper.

California marginal tax rate of 13.30% versus Pennsylvania flat tax of 3.07%…at $26 million/year AAV that works-out to about $2.6 million a year that CANNOT BE DEDUCTED FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. Bryce clears about $2.6 million per year more by playing in PA over CA.

I am thinking Bryce has a tax accountant in his posse, while Manny Machado (San Diego) does not.

On behalf of Phillies phans everywhere, thank you Mr Trump for halting the federal subsidizing of these leftist/socialist states.
