I'd never live in high tax states like NY, NJ, CA, MA, or any others....no thx.
MA is not a high tax state. No idea why people think that. It's middle of the pack in total tax burden, around 23-25 depending on the index out of 50. California isin't among the 10 highest either.
Absolutely....the subways so full of criminals, & homeless people, most New Yorkers will not ride them...especially after dark. They also smell of urine. Getting pushed onto the tracks by some mentaly ill nutcase is also a hazzard.
When I was a kid in Brooklyn, we used to see transit police on every platform, and on every train...no more.

... you are 2000x more likely to die in a car on the way to work then you are to die taking public transportation.
