they dont do ANY sales tax in MT...but they sure have a killer personal & property tax, not to mention a very beefy gas tax. Think about it friend, you have a HUGE FREXN state and what do they have???? Cows, some minerals, cows, some buffalo, cows, some wild horses, cows, some people to work cows, more cows....did I mention cows? Ohh...thats right, a very nice view of what??? C O W S from a distance! Dont forget to close the north gate when the wind blows...those of us in WY dislike that North wind! Not to mention, blowing cows from the NORTH!
Seriously friend, if you are wanting to find a very easy way to learn about a STATE's bottom line that isnt their citizenry....look for a CAFR. Consolidated Annual Fiscal Report. Every state's treasurer MUST print one out....look for revenue generated by things other than income taxed, or fees generated by people. For instance, WY has $12M (rough est) collected by minerals each year. Not bad considering that WY has only 500K people in the WHOLE state. Think about what us PUPPETS in the system DONT pay! We have the CHEAPEST gas tax out of all the lower 48. 4% sales tax state wide (incl food), and I'd venture the cheapest on property tx. No income tx, no inheritance tx.......Im not a lover of any tax...but considering other states...its chepola in this Coal and Natural Gas State.
Lastly, if you do venture thru this state....watch out for the deer/antelope and an occasional heffer. Gas is cheapest in cheyenne and goes up when you go north and west.
Currently Gas is 1.11 and Diesel is 1.09
As always friend, do your own due dilligence!
Namaste, Eric
