Morning Update: Tax Burden

Today, on the Morning Update, the left says “affordability” but then raises or expands taxes, regulations, and fees, and those two things are so very incompatible.

  • Democrats raise taxes, which makes life unaffordable.
  • The five states with the highest total tax burden are blue
  • The five best states with the lowest total tax burden are red
  • New Hampshire Democrats are reaching for statewide taxes
  • Vermont provides a warning for where taxing Dems will take us
