Tax burdens by city


Here's a graph showing the highest tax burdens on a typical family of three (click to enlarge). Buckeyeville is the only Ohio city on the list; coming in at a healthy #11.

The first thing you'll notice on the chart is that you'll see few if any "red" or "conservative" cities; all the cities are "blue"or "progressive".

But at least with all these "progressive" cities, you'll get to pay for such amenities as, higher crime, higher unemployment, crappy schools, toll roads, trans fat bans, red light cameras, etc.

Where's that "progressive" guy when I need him. Maybe he can explain to me how this is "progress".
