[Magdalen] Taxes???

[Charles Wohlers]

VT does tax SSI and, I gather, is one of the few states to do so. They're 
talking about getting rid of it.

When my father retired, my parents moved from NJ to NC for just the reason 
you state. I left NJ for other reasons and have no desire to go back, also 
for other reasons.

Pennsylvania has the 6% sales tax, but no income tax is levied against
those who are retired.  I do pay school and real estate taxes.  PA
is therefore better for retirement than many states.  Of course there
are ALWAYS Federal income taxes to be paid.  This is one reason
that so many New Jerseyites move to PA to avoid that states confiscatory
taxes.  The Jersey influence is very heavy in my Pocono development.

As is well-known, in neighbo(u)ring New Hampshire there are no sales taxes 
of any kind. Which is why one finds a bunch of big box stores right across 
the river. OTOH, they do have a 9% meals and room tax to get all the 
tourists.
