Well, we don’t have an income tax (unconstitutional, although there is a dubious Halls Tax, which is a de facto one), our sales tax is rather high (nearly 10% - and on everything). This state is becoming more Conservative/GOP, went against the mass-insanity of the national election (where the False Messiah was reviled nearly as much as McGovern was in ‘72 by the voters). Although Nashville and Memphis proper are Dem, the suburbs are all heavily GOP, so it’s a good bet to move here if you’re so inclined. For recreation, you got everything from the Mississippi clear through to the Great Smokies. Lots of state parks, you name it. I don’t know what else you want to know, just ask.

Good for you. It sounds like Texas up until recent years, in which we trended the other way.
