I need to get out of Nyc. You can't even sneeze here without having to fill out forms as to why, where, and how you sneezed.

We're #42 here in Ohio....our state spends entirely too much money. Mayor Mike Coleman of Columbus here LOVES to spend spend spend.....

At least you are honest haha. I dont hate you, i just hate your state. Well I cant really say that either... I hate your state's (lack of)
fiscal policy and arbitrary restrictions.

Some of those states surprise me. I really would have thought Alaska would have been in the top ten. I thought Texas would have been higher too.

California would have done much better if they counted free borders..

 

[bluejeepkid]

wow... 22, i thought for sure we'd be top 10.. lol

 

[coldoath]

Do you have a LTCH yet? You should get one since we're #3! Wooooo! i was surprised we're that high on the list. Gov. Daniels has done a decent job and i would have voted for him if he ran for president. His family talked him out of it though.

lol New Hampshire....screw that.

Why? That's where I live...

No income tax, No sales tax, very liberal gun laws...

The state motto is "Live Free or Die" for a reason!

#5 hail yea!

I'm not surprised.

 

[FlexdXJ]

No income tax, No sales tax

That would certainly help the Jeep fund!

 

[bdahlg]

No income tax, No sales tax, extremely high property tax

FIFY

But who am I kidding. Lived in CT now MA, but hey, at least my home state of VA is low

 

[DeftwillP]

Hmmmm......seems like all of the darkest blue states are the ones that traditionally vote blue. Suprised?

NH is one of the few places I've lived that I would return to. Nice place to live except for the skeeters and black flies!

#4 Idaho and #1 New Hampshire - depending on what time of the year it is.

I admire NH ability to remain a not progressive taxed to death hole.

unfortunately OH is sliding down the same path as all the surrounding welfare states....
