Reply #137: Illinois is flat tax.

[ieoeja]

The comparison I saw was between the highest state income tax in each state. Louisiana may have a lower tax for loewr incomes, but its highest tax would be higher than Illinois'.

Actually, I thought Louisiana was one of the nine with *no* income tax. But I must be mistaken in that. The only thing I was particulaly interested in at the time was where Illinois ranked because of the proposed income tax hike. I was shocked to find we had the absolute lowest high.

Please inform your mom and brother of this fact. I tell everyone I know since for some odd reason Quinn won't. I swear Democratic politicians are the stupidest politicians in the world.


Yes, we do have high property and sales taxes. In part to make up for the low income tax, I imagine.
