:Ok, I can take the ribbing!
But you guys ARE invited, I make good pulled pork. I hear Memphis is a happening place, why not move to there? Just remember we have a very high sales tax, which includes food.

www.tennessee.gov/revenue/tntaxe···duse.htmNot counting local taxes, we have the highest tax on food of any state I believe.
As I have said, since people's income is pretty low in most of Tennessee, a state income tax won't work well here, so we pay more on good including food. No matter where you live, you're gonna pay one way or another.
I am for a "fair tax" based on commerce, with a card issued to the destitute poor so that they can get a discount on food and other essentials as far as taxes.
I heartily invite you, disconnected, pandora, and P Ness down here. Don't just talk, walk the walk and move here, I want to see how ya like it and if you will miss CT.
Make digs at me all you want, you all are just sore because I spoke something that struck home.
already moved from NY (long island) over 15 years ago and never looked back
