Missouri ranks ahead of Texas. Missouri has an income tax, Texas does not. I'd like to get rid of it... believe me! "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Problem is the democratic AG that is suing him at every turn. Yeah, the former governor's son. No conflict of interest there.  | |||

All states that do not have personal income tax are some shade of blue on the map. NOT all states that are blue, have no income tax. Think in terms of all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

Given that they've thrown a few recent governors in jail, I'm guessing Alabama just has a reasonably efficient bureaucracy. -- I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. JALLEN 10/18/18 https://sigforum.com/eve/forum...610094844#7610094844 | |||

Now, we did electric Charlie Crist twice so we can't claim to be batting 1.000. | |||

Yeah, I would not count Gov. Orange as even a Ryan Republican. He's a total populist and was while in office. But the legislature has been decent fiscally.  ***************** Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. - Ben Franklin | |||

I am a little surprised that Texas only ranks 23rd. I thought our situation was better than that. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

I noticed that as well. Greitens will make a difference down the road I do believe. .....never marry a woman who is mean to your waitress. | |||

I am surprised CA ranked as high as it did. Maybe they aren't considering all the unfunded public pensions. "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women.

Wife and I were thinking about exiting California in a couple of years when I retire. We were looking at Arizona and possible Idaho. May have to look more at Idaho. My Oncologist told me there are good doctors in the Phoenix area. Don’t know anything about Idaho except there is good fishing and hunting. Beware the man who only has one gun. He probably knows how to use it! - John Steinbeck | |||

Be happy. But for the Grace of God (and oppressive taxes, near sanctuary status, unemployment, bridgate, $300 million allocated to patch up the state house when the estimate was $30 mil) could be like Jersey. I should be tall and rich too; That ain't gonna happen either | |||

Just thinking?  Arizona, the Phoenix area specifically, has a lot of transplants from Chicago. You know, people who fucked up that state and fled the mess they made, and are now looking at another place to infest. Idaho is a beautiful state though the winters aren't the friendliest. _____________ | |||

And they laughed at flyover country too. The Dakotas are doing quite well thank you very much. And, unlike Florida, we aren't plagued with June bugs! LOL Certifiable member of the gun toting, septuagenarian, bucket list workin', crazed retiree, bald is beautiful club! USN (RET), COTEP #192 | |||

Those bugs aren't as dumb as they look. Who wants to fly all that way for just one day of summer? Sure, you have a picnic, but then it's back to ice fishing the rest of the year. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||
