That is a perspective from somebody living in a place with state income tax. Life is so much better when you are not paying state income taxes. Texas, Florida, and a few other places have no state income taxes.
- cheschire 8y agoYour reply is to a post that is talking about taxes generally, not income taxes specifically. Texas has no income tax, but has sales[0] and property[1] taxes that are above the national average, as well as tolls on many public[2] roads. Texans are heavily taxed, but in ways which are based on overall footprint/usage rather than the ham-fisted distribution of income taxes that other states prefer. I agree with your assertion that life is better because of that. 0: https://taxfoundation.org/state-and-local-sales-tax-rates-2018/ https://taxfoundation.org/state-and-local-sales-tax-rates-20... 1: https://www.thebalance.com/best-and-worst-states-for-property-taxes-3193328 https://www.thebalance.com/best-and-worst-states-for-propert... 2: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_toll_roads_in_Texas#Operating_agencies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_toll_roads_in_Texas#Op...
