Tax ROI by State

Sigh.

The John Locke Foundation is out with a table of the ROI (return on investment) of your tax dollars, listed by state. The states are graded based on the tax rate and overall state services returned to the taxpayer. The results are exhilarating or depressing, depending on whether you're from Texas or Wisconsin. (Hint: I'm from Texas, but pay taxes in Wisconsin, so don't know whether to sh** or go blind).

Let's see...Texas ranks 3rd...




Wisconsin ranks, well, er, last. That's 50th, in case you listen to the other moron, Barack Obama, and think there are 56 states.



No real surprise, given that our school tax dollars are going up in smoke. Can't we fire the morons, starting with the head moron, Russ Feingold?

Harrumph.
