Would We Resent Illegals Less If They Paid Their Fair Share?

One good reason for scrapping state income taxes and replacing them with consumption taxes is that doing so puts the underground economy back on the books.

The states which currently have no income tax are Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming. Additionally, New Hampshire and Tennessee limit their state income taxes to dividends and interest income only.

We should seriously consider joining them.
