You don't pay taxes on groceries,clothes and medicine. Try TN,they don't have a state income but their property tax are high. Also in TN,they tax you almost 10% on everything except medicine.

@@80660018 I didn't even get into property taxes..excise taxes.. Or in some towns like mine.. A meals tax if you eat. Out. This fricken state even taxes me on a coffee to go. Add them all up and recalculate your percentages.

All states have a meals tax,excise and property tax. Most states actually have a higher percentage property tax then Ma.

@@80660018 my point is.. If you calculate all the taxes that ma residents pay..its much higher than 27%. Like it or not.

But for example NH has no tax on purchases but you pay double on property tax. The government just finds different ways to make us feel better about how they take our money

Yaaa!!!

Have you seen Taxifornia?

@@RegardlessSociety oh I live here buddy. It’s pretty awful I’ll be the first to tell you. I’ve also seen how bad it is in Taxas. Florida is a pretty good model. No state income tax and a low sales tax.

Most of those taxes ain’t even state taxes lmao

STAWPPPP

property and sales tax are state rev

He's right...like spot on

I run a small business and I literally take a third out And set it aside like I don’t have it in a separate account-- Otherwise you get fucked

@@michaelchipman1832 27% isn’t a third 💀

@@theboys5659 pretty dam close

@@theboys5659 what you gonna do with that 6.3%? Go to the dollar store?

Damn that sucks

You get a lot more out of it at least in most Western European countries. Better Education and much lower tuition rates. Universal healthcare options for those who don’t have private healthcare. Insanely better public transport options and for the most part very well maintained/modernized infrastructure. More social programs. This isn’t even half of it but you get the point lol

I love the european system. You pay more, but you will be better protected. Even if you are poor (because also a rich person can have an accident or a default and can end his life poor).

@@puffm696 Ummm hate to burst your bubble here but the US has the best educational system in the world. And most of the top of the line doctors are in the US to. Doctors in the US also get paid more than almost all other countries.

@@jimhardiman7735 No we definitely positively absolutely *do not* have the best education system in the world. Why do you think our students are so far behind in basic subjects that we used to excel at? Have you seen the state of our underfunded public schools? I don’t wanna laugh at you but that’s just a silly statement. I can tell our education is lacking because reading comprehension is obviously not your strong suit. I went out of my way to use the words “Options for those who don’t have private healthcare”. Yea our healthcare is top notch, but only if you can afford it. I’m also not sure what doctors salaries have to do with this. There is nothing wrong with appreciating this country, but take your head out of the sand and put your personal biases aside for a second. Look at things objectively, don’t mindlessly spew talking points you’ve seen on your television; without even properly addressing what I’ve said.

Bullshit

@@TOWNIES02129 you obtain more tax revenue, you can funnel it into the economy and collective society to help people. Do you ever wonder why you hear states such as MA, VT, WA and Minnesota are some of the best states to live in while states such as Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, and West Virginia are some of the worst to live in

Yup

As someone from Massachusetts these numbers feel low.

i can firm is is basically right exceptthat he includes the federal and social security taxes which are not state taxes and make up about $20,000 of the total $27,000 in taxes so in ma YOU ARE ONLY PAYING ABOUT $7,000 MORE ON THAT INCOME THAN THE FEDAL TAX EVERYONE PAYS.

@@ChefChucko on god

@@ChefChucko you're right they are low I did the math taxes take 1/3 of my paycheck every year I make 75k and take home just over 50k

If you're paycheck to paycheck on 72k, then you're doing something wrong.

Manage your money better

​@@dennisdontcare286bro really flexing that gold chain on his pfp then complaining about money😂

@@chiefbanana1093 real talk

TRUE

The MBTA is the deadliest public transportation system in America. Nice try. Our schools? I went to our schools. If this is the best we can do then I'm horrified to think of how worse it is everywhere else.

@@Gnomezonbacon you’re right, the MBTA seems to have gotten worse although my personal experience says otherwise. I hope it gets better. Other than that, yes schools here are the best in the nation. We have the results to prove it. We have among the highest scores in the nation, we’re a hub education housing some of the best renowned schools in the nation. You can hate all you want but I don’t think it’s ever in good faith to discredit our education. Trust me, you don’t think it but it’s MUCH worse everywhere else.

You need help

Massachusetts always reports fake numbers in terms of educational proficiency. Had a co worker who attended the best college in Boston and still could not research any topic besides repeating old woke talking points.

Our education system sucks dude.

you clearly have never lived in massachusetts

Lol 😂

It’s out of control

I thought they took that away? I even cancelled mine this year wth.

and if you don't have it they deduct your tax rebate money as a punishment ...

MA has the best hospitals because they ensure they get paid... For real 😂

OH you're too poor for health insurance! THAT'S A FINE NOW PAY ME!

There’s property tax everywhere idiot

@@jggg202 Love how you show the level of your intellect and/or age by resorting to childish name-calling........ And yes while there is property tax "everywhere" across our country, many who have never actually owned property are unaware of this fact. Just like they are also unaware of how "much" $$$ people have to pay when it comes to property tax, as property tax rates differ across the various towns, cities, and villages in the respective parts of the states across our country ..........

Don't need insurance if it's for religious reasons

You realize the affordable care act effectively federalized that so literally everyone in the country pays that if they don’t have insurance right? Of course you knew that you’re not a moron.

@@timmacsweet1 it was in effect in Massachusetts long before it was a federal requirement. And the cost of insurance has increased every year since the federal mandate. But yeah, I'm a moron for living and working in the state we're discussing. And if you look at that affordable care act the fact the mandate was able to pass was because, wait for it, it's classified as a tax.

@@MrHikerToYou I live here too chuckles. Our insurance has always cost more because Massachusetts mandated more coverage even prior to Romney Care. This is nothing new and is in line with insurance premiums for any state with our level of care and cost of living relative to other states premiums. But you already knew that because you’re not a complete moron.

And still votes Democrat

Have no fear, Maura Healy is going to do her best to put MA at the top of that list.

Are you smoking crack? Our infrastructure is shit, roads get cut open and fucked up yearly. The T is breaking down and late while crime is sky high and our homeless population has skyrocketed. Massachusetts is only good if you got money and living out in the suburbs.

bro what would a republican do lmao? make shit worse. democrats arent good but republicans are anti-worker and anti-people to the max. they arent cutting taxes for you honey youre not rich. hows the boot taste?

You say “another” like they only voted ONE democrat in., nope they voted every democrat running in., and they had every vote counted 9 minutes after the poles closed., the only three places equally hopeless is their neighbors to the south RI , NY, AND CA.

Massachusetts is one of the most educated, might explain why most people are Democrats here 🙂

@@RyderMonkeyGamer nazi Germany was the most educated country on earth at the time. apparently not too educated are we

Lotta these taxes go back to you... Thats how taxes work. However, certain states are self sustaining, meaning they put more into federal than they benefit from. Yall act like taxes are the worst thing ever when they are correlated with a better standard of living and economic stability at every income level

@@SaiShiroKuro it all goes back to you. What you don't understand is that ppl need the money now, not a yr later. Feds and insurance are the biggest scams. You pay so much into insurance but when it comes to making a claim, it takes a life time to get it or they give you the run around.

You must be a liberal
