How do you attract a flock of emus? This wildlife guide shows a great trick: lie on your back and pump your legs like you're riding a bicycle upside down. Do it and they will come.
An interesting moment comes at 1:15. The man sits down and the emus promptly scatter. But once he resumes the bicycling movement, they come back.
Try it! Go outside somewhere, like a shopping mall or a public library, flip on your back and begin cycling. Emus will eventually show up.

For instance, while 7 states have zero income tax, uber-progressive (well progressive EXCEPT about Uber) California has a personal income tax that's, well, uber progressive -- varying from NEGATIVE (cash credits) to 13.3% -- by FAR the highest in the nation -- impossible to calculate in the formula.
Also ignored as impossible to calculate are fees, fines, and other state and local "non-purchase" levies by government. Fee-crazy California again "excels" in this area.
Hence the hypothetical $100 is AFTER-tax dollars. Other taxes included in a purchase (sales, excise, etc) ARE included in the comparison, but income tax is not. The REAL total difference between the states is often significantly higher as a result, but not included in this study.
