4. Taxes pay for stuff "you love".

I am glad that she talked about states like Texas that have no income tax, but you pay higher property tax. What people don’t understand that it’s a total rearranging the deck chairs when you’re avoiding taxes. A state cannot run without taxpayers so if you’re not paying sales tax you’re gonna pay other kinds of taxes to make up the difference. If you don’t pay income tax, you’re gonna usually pay higher property tax, and other taxes to make up the difference.

And the states that Dodge taxes usually use federal funds to make up their budget deficits. so when you are dodging taxes by moving, you’re either gonna pay it one way or other people in blue states are going to pay it for you.
