I was actually comparing more to Europe since I’m European. There the essentials are in the low tax bracket like about 5 to 9 percent, depending on the country. Luxuries are usually 20 percent or higher.
Literally inferior to New Jersey. Essentials should never be taxed at all. Maybe your tax code is relatively progressive compared to other places but that one part is a big fail.
Yeah, you folks have some catching up to do. You are better at providing social services and are largely backward when it comes to funding them. You literally tax food so you can provide assistance to people who can’t afford food. You create poverty so you can provide services to the people you’ve just impoverished. Seeing parallels to Idaho in your tax scheme is a red flag, it’s not an indicator that they’re doing something right, it’s an indicator that you’re doing something wrong.
