You don't seem to understand. We paid less total taxes in Missouri where I came from than we pay in Texas. You seem to like paying high taxes. I don't. You're the one who ought to move to California.
I was doing some research on this subject. Missourians have their tax freedom day on April 10 of each year. Texan's have their tax freedom day on April 14 of each year. Texan's pay higher taxes than do Missourians.
