Tax Foundation debunks its own anti-tax map

A nice little article in the U.S. magazine Slate, providing a map of the horrors of those U.S. states with the "worst" business tax climates.

As Slate notes:

"Another day, another weird map from a libertarian group that seems designed to debunk libertarianism. Last time it was strange assertions about freedom, today it's the Tax Foundation explaining why there are no successful businesses in California or New York."

The triumph of dogma over evidence remains, unfortunately, a hardy perennial.
