“States that were once economic powerhouses are hemorrhaging productive taxpayers. New York, which has the most burdensome corporate tax rate, and Illinois, where property taxes, public debt, the minimum wage, and workers’ compensation costs are all sky high, both lost population in the 2010 census. Those losses cost New York two seats in the House of Representatives and cost Illinois one seat. Illinois ranked 48th out of the 50 states in the ALEC study. New York ranked dead last. California, with the highest state personal income tax rate, ranked 47th.”
