"While all Americans are generally subject to the same federal tax code, each of the 50 states has broad authority to levy its own sales, income and property taxes – or not.
While every state government relies on taxes to operate, no two state tax structures are exactly the same.
For example,
- four states do not charge a sales tax and
- seven states do not levy personal income taxes.
- ...13 states derive the largest share of their annual tax revenue from sales taxes and
- nine from personal income taxes.
The differences are compounded by the amount states need to collect to function.
While some states collect as little as $2,800 per capita annually, others collect well over $6,000..."
