Ah, Taxachussettes. I can understand why, now.

The rate reflects all those taxes paid by the company and all their
employees...It adds up quite fast.

Yet another person who believes the myth. The Massachusetts tax burden
is lower than most states, about the same as SC. Also, our gasoline
taxes are lower than the national average, and the gas prices are lower.

It turns out that electric prices are particularly expensive, almost
double the national average, in all of the NE states.
