New York Leads U.S. in Taxes, Tennessee Is Last
EFLNew Yorkers pay the highest state and local taxes in the nation, shelling out nearly $131 for every $1,000 of income in 2002, according to a new study. Tennessee taxed its citizens the least -- they paid just under $84 for every $1,000 of income. Massachusetts, ridiculed in the 1980s as "Taxachusetts" fell to 40th in 2002, as its residents only paid $96 in taxes for every $1,000 of income, according to a Boston-based business group. Is this accurate or are there hidden charges? Is it possible that a Boston-based business group might fiddle the numbers? Posted by: Super Hose 2004-09-10 |
