True. My current state, Missouri, doesn't have these taxes but they do have personal property tax on vehicles. In Ohio where I grew up, they don't have personal property tax on vehicles but they have taxes on video services.
Well, the Democratic state of Oregon or Washington state (can’t remember which, but I know it’s on the west coast), doesn’t have an income tax. Other Democratic states have certain exemptions. I live in Minnesota and I know we have exemptions. It’s just New York state and California that surprise me. I also should note that even a Republican state like Texas has high property taxes. I’m not saying that doesn’t happen.
