Stopping in to say hi

The reason our sales tax is so high is the high volume of tourist that come to the mountains and spend their money. Let others make up the difference from having zero income tax, and the only thing for property tax is you house and land. If your land is in the country property taxes are typically pretty low. Larger cities, not so much
It is a trade off.

Sheesh. I'm in Louisiana and we have income tax AND 10.45% sales tax (it was 11% but it went down slightly). They even tax prescription medicines here (6% tax on them).
I have a friend who just moved back to Tennessee. She's a nurse. I forget what town she's in though.

There has been debate in our congress to removing the sales tax from food products. I'm certainly in favor of that.

@Cswilson ,
In KY, we already have NO sales tax on food products.

Much better to homestead here as we have free public medical here and country property prices are a lot cheaper.
