(20,672 posts)1. When there is a tax base in place, everyone will benefit.
States like California, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Washington, etc., may have higher taxes. But! Those states also have more sound economies, better infrastructure, monies for Education, money to run their governments, and still have budget surpluses.
Low tax states(Red) are the opposite. I have traveled to states where wages and the quality of life is low and it shows.
