How about sales taxes?

Sales taxes?
51 (tie). Oregon: 0%

Good point. I know at least Oregon has none, which may contribute to it being near the top there. I don't know enough about the state's taxes to say for sure, though.

What Oregon also does is cap the mortgage deduction.
This means a higher real income tax rate for lower incomes (i.e less than $250k)

I have yet to see a good assessment of comprehensive tax burden- local income, local and state sales, property taxes, state income, mandatory fees, corporate taxes- that shows us the real burden.
Is it really so difficult to come up with by census tract or zip code?

Then the pitchforks also make an appearance.

And what about property taxes?
In Colorado, taxes on a $500,000 house are about $3000/year. In Texas, it would likely be $12,000/year or more.
Taxes will be paid. The only question is how one pays them.
