is that we are one day closer to bidding Barry bye bye. He's got to be the worst president ever, especially for not showing up at Arlington on Memorial Day when we are at war.

....the only state which would be considered a high tax state, as it applies to operating abusiness in that state.......is MN. Probably followed by Iowa, and the rest are a considerable distance down the list. I suspect you realize that, as you tried to shift the focus of your follow-up comment to education, for whatever reason. Nice try.

Article Quote "Based on the latest state job data and Minnesota's recovery [rate]...I would not expect the state to fully restore these jobs until September 2013," he said. This, only after Trillions in borrowed "Stimulous money" our kids will pay for until 2070.

Let's see how many Fortune 500s each state has... Iowa (1), North Dakota (0), South Dakota (0), Nebraska (4), Missouri (9), Kansas (3), Arkansas (5), Oklahoma (4). Super-taxed Minnesota has 20. Nice try though.

Super-taxed MN has more of pretty much anything than the other states on that list. Your idiotic comment to kick off the thread was that (don't tell Rush) high taxes don't inhibit economic growth in these high tax states on the list. In reality, the list included only two high tax states. The rest of this is just you flailing around like a fish out of water.

And we know that's not south of the Mason-Dixon line. So not sure how Arkansas and Oklahoma made the list...

There's a reason why the big companies are downtown. That's where people want to be.
