Cmon HallB, you actually expect em to read it.High state income taxes have been subsidized at the Federal level by those of us who don't have them, now the residents of those states will get to carry their own water, especially the liberal states with super high rates.Maybe their citizens will decide they don't really want to pay for all those socialist programs once it starts actually coming out of their own pocket.If the standard deduction is increased you Alabamians will come out fine.
