since washington has no income tax and emphasis is shifted to user fees ,the burden that someone in the lower income levels pays as a percent of their income compared to those that are wealthy is 550%....if you're middle income it's about 350% more than the upper income guys.....the terrible ten states are alabama,florida,illinois,michigan,nevada,pennsylvania,so dakota,tennessee,texas and washington....this according to the institute on taxation and economic policy.....so.....ya get what ya ask for....no one wants an income tax .....
