Now if Local and state governments would cut the taxes then people would afford things more. Like look at some states Counties add more sales taxes no wonder people buy from Amazon.com cause Amazon.com dont add sales taxes. Look at florida counties have that sales tax.

Now Look at state of Maryland. Counties there cannot add sales taxes its done by the state. The Reason why Florida counties add sales taxes is because theres no State income taxes in Florida.Wanna know where sales taxes go in florida? It pays COPS who dont do their jobs and Schools aka Teachers Unions. Now Texas has no income tax nor the counties dont have property taxes. But State has collect sales taxes. So youre better off living in Texas than anywhere else. Florida is for Millionares and Billionares to live in plus its warm all year round. Texas is the poor and middle class peoples state.
