Just like California couldn't force me to stay there to pay their absurd 8.25% sales tax

?

I live in California and I don't even pay 7.5% sales tax.

Each county can tack on their own little ornaments to the sales tax - in Santa Clara county it was 8.25% thanks to the BART and light rail white elephants and the fast-spending Democrats with their million-dollar bike trail projects, and they were talking about raising it to 8.75% when we finally pulled up stakes and moved to New Hampshire (0% sales, 0% income taxes).
