When people move to Texas because there is no income tax, they discover that TX makes up for the difference via higher property tax. I hear anecdotes that for ordinary people, their taxes went up after moving to TX. There is no free lunch.

"Blue states" often try and tax wealth and corporate income and use the money to provide more services.
