I think you forgot about federalism -- there's no basis whatsoever for saying Florida's (lack of) taxes is unfair when compared to California's. Californians should do something about it, not complain about Texas, Tennessee, or Florida.
God forbid that the federal government ever set state income tax rates. Where is there to go then? Costa Rica?
If California would end it state pension, we could lower the state tax. I am actually pretty shocked Californians are okay with such high tax rates. No one seems to care.
I am from Florida. No one in Florida actually appreciates that they do not pay state income tax. They actually complain a lot about lack of services. I am constantly reminding them they do not have a state tax so what do they expect. Maybe other states can do well without a state tax but Floridians complain about everything.
I did not forget about federalism. I have opinions and they do not always fit within the existing structure of our form of government.
