7 States With Highest Tax Burden...What do They Have in Common?
A better standard of living? A higher GDP? Better education?
NYC has better education?
LOLOLOLOL.
Unless of course you are in one of those gentrified neighborhoods, or have a sweet charter school hookup.
Or can afford to send your kids to private school.
NYC isn't a state. The highest earners in New York mostly live in the city. As a result tax dollars flow out of the city and into those gentrified suburban and rural areas to provide education funding. So you may be right. But not for the reasons you're alleging.
You do realize that not paying a state income tax of $10,000 to Virginia is a nice tax break? So even if I pay more property tax in Florida, my overall tax is way reduced...I laugh at you guys who pay more than me...You deserve to be poor...Not according to what I found. The mean effective property tax rate for Virginia is 0.78% while in Florida it is 1.06%.Try again tard...The common wealth tax makes my $600,000 house around $10,000. My house in Florida at $1,000,000 is only $6,000. Are you a common core graduate also?You may need some that $10K to cover the 33% higher property taxes in Florida vs Virginia. Enjoy your free lunch.I am moving from Virginia to Florida. I will get a $10,000 bonus check each year because I wont pay a state income tax anymore.....Live in a high state tax state, you deserve to be taxed to death...
I wouldn't expect a windfall since you are moving from 41st highest tax burden state to the 47th.
Okay, and?
New York has 2nd highest GDP per capita, Oregon has 21st highest, Maryland 11th highest, Minnesota has the 14th highest, California the 8th highest, Massachusetts the 1st highest, Connecticut the 3rd highest.
What a surprise that the 1st, 2nd, 3rd highest states have higher taxes which they spend on stuff that helps them get richer......
21st is the lowest.
7 States With Highest Tax Burden...What do They Have in Common?
A better standard of living? A higher GDP? Better education?
Better schools, better transportation, public facilities, better quality of life
Damn blue states
Hahaha....I love the...”But, but, but.....GDP!” bunch of LefTard bullshit....GDP does not translate into shit for your precious illegals and bottom feeders...you know this but you still cry out “GDP!”
In one post you whackos proclaim to hate financial inequality then in the next post you use the success of the elites to boast about GDP while the majority of your constituents live like human cockroaches....FUNNY SHIT!
And what do taxes mean for illegals exactly?
How many illegals are paying federal income tax?
I think you missed the point...it’s clearly shown in Mexifornia and Loon York....A states GDP means absolutely nothing to the bulk of your constituency as 20-30% of the population in Mexifornia live like disgusting thirdworlders do.
No, the point seems to be that you're coming up with childish names.....
When you grow up, maybe we can talk.

Remember we pay local income AND property taxes in the City, so we pay even more into education locally, not just via our State taxes.
And the suburbs also pay a pretty penny in property taxes to fund their own local education systems, even with additional State $$

Which just goes to show that the heavy tax burden does seem to correlated with a good educational system for most areas, i.e. the previously mentioned gentrified suburban and rural areas. People need to stop thinking of taxes as being inherently bad. High taxes aren't inherently bad. Wastefulness and inadequate public services is what's bad.
So here's the real question. If given a choice between high taxes sometimes spent wastefully providing merely adequate public services, or low taxes providing inadequate public services--which would be preferred?
you really said that? You must be a liberal because you are stupid as hell...High taxes aren't inherently bad.

You keep on believing that, you deserve it for sure...Like everything else in life, better costs more.

I have no idea what your situation is but I have a problem with people who raise their kids in an area with good, well-funded schools and then, when their kids are grown, vote against any school funding tax or bond measures.You do realize that not paying a state income tax of $10,000 to Virginia is a nice tax break? So even if I pay more property tax in Florida, my overall tax is way reduced...I laugh at you guys who pay more than me...You deserve to be poor...
NYC certainly has it issues but they do have the best public transportation system in the country. There are few other places that you do better without a car than with one.The people in the crappy neighborhoods in NYC would disagree.
We get high taxes and middling service. That is bad.
I put my kids in private school, why should I be taxed for something I didn't use?I have no idea what your situation is but I have a problem with people who raise their kids in an area with good, well-funded schools and then, when their kids are grown, vote against any school funding tax or bond measures.You do realize that not paying a state income tax of $10,000 to Virginia is a nice tax break?

Yeah, all those subways that stop at your local Walmart.....NYC certainly has it issues but they do have the best public transportation system in the country. There are few other places that you do better without a car than with one.The people in the crappy neighborhoods in NYC would disagree.

you really said that? You must be a liberal because you are stupid as hell...
Every time I see taxes get too high for a state, there is a mass migration to the next state who has a lower one. Saw it with the millionaire tax in Montgomery County and over 2/3 of the millionaires moved to Northern Virginia even though Montgomery County offered better parks, schools and roads. Why? Because people don't like paying high taxes....you may not be liberal, but sometimes you say the dumbest things.you really said that? You must be a liberal because you are stupid as hell...
Yes, I really just said that. Of course, you're too stupid to understand it. I'm not a liberal, I'm mostly libertarian. It's a simple question of willingness to pay and transactional return. If the public gets an equitable return for high taxes, then I don't see much of a problem. If the people prefer to give up the benefits and public services in exchange for low taxes, then that's fine too.
Better schools, better transportation, public facilities, better quality of life
Damn blue states

No, I am saying that if you increase taxes, to the point people aren't going to pay for it, people leave..even if the taxes are used to make their lives better..Intelligent people and they know what their money can do, don't feel a government is going to spend their taxes in a manner that will help the rich...It is always the poor the taxes help....It isn't that hard...Every time I see taxes get too high for a state, there is a mass migration to the next state who has a lower one.

In other words, you agree with what I said. If people are willing to pay the higher taxes in exchange for the public services that's fine, but if they aren't willing to agree to the transaction that's where the problem happens.
