We pay no state taxes, How can that be paradise for a progressive such as yourself? Doesn't that allow for income inequality to occur Aren't there some people out there who haven't yet shared their success with those less fortunate. But if I lived in Texas or Florida I would consider it. How come all these places that you mention all have no state income taxes. You should move to California, I've heard that it is paradise. It never Rains and is always Sunny and Warm and there's no need to shovel Snow and the government takes care of your Food. And you get "Free Education" on your TV via the government education channel.
