How are the sales tax rates in Westchester County, Mass and RI? Don’t those states tax the heck out of their citizens too? (I live in SC)

NY, MA and RI have high sales taxes.
But CT Gov Malloy intends to change the basis of the tax.

A $30 shirt on sale for $15 would be taxed on 6.5% of the $30 if bought in CT. In MA, it would be 8%(?) on the $15. That works out to 60% more tax in CT than in MA.
