Just thought that I'd point out that Missouri has a maximum 6% rate, and other states have lower rates or no state income tax at all. Why do you put up with such gouging? States are such worthless entities, anyway -- there certainly is no reason to tolerate them stealing your money this way... (This ought to generate some flamage...) Will /* ---------- */ Good point. But it applies all states, regardless of whether or not they recognize an authority higher than themselves.
