Yeah, that's your measure of a fine state, the % of sales tax.

Well, there's that and: the fact that registration on my new truck was going
to be $900 in Nevada, and was $180 in Utah. My auto insurance is 40% of what
it is in Vegas. My homeowner's and other policies are likewise less. I
have a welding trailer and a boat trailer that don't even require license
plates because they are under the weight minimums. Property taxes are far
less. Fresh fruit and vegetables are less. Gas is less. Electricity is
less. On a clear day I can see forever, well nearly a hundred miles.
Pollution is less. There's probably more, but that's only some of the
things.

Everyone lives in a "fine state", but that depends a lot on what you do for
a living, where family is located, what climate you like, and sometimes,
just the flop of the cards.

Yeah. Utah is crummy. Please stay away. You wouldn't like it.
