The only thing I will grant you, is the term 'Taxachusetts' . did in fact, have some meit 15-20 years ago, as in the 80's they ranked very high (topped out at 4th or so) , in State tax burden.

1.) Massachusetts has a flat income tax.

2.) It's also interesting that you identify the 80's as when Massachusetts had a very high ranking tax burden.

Isn't that when John Kerry was the states Lt. Governer working under Governer Michael Dukakis?

Locally, goobernatorial candidate Ron Simms wants higher taxes too. He supported Michael Dukakis in '88, and he supports Kerry in '04.

For all of you who are in favor of higher taxes:

Simms and Kerry '04!
