New Hampshire has lower taxes than we do. But somehow they have one of the highest quality of life indexes. Mississippi has higher taxes than we do, yet they are consistently one of the lowest quality of life states.
Alaska has the lowest taxes, Georgia the highest. I would say your claim of a direct correlation is a bit of a stretch.
If only "RAISE TAXES" was really the solution to all of our problems, things would be so easy. The problem is, when you raise taxes the public infrastructure may improve but personal property, local businesses, and real property suffers. Shiny new streets running along side neglected houses with crappy cards...
