This is why you can deduct local income tax or local sales tax. It is meant to equalize bros living in high tax lib states from those who live in Omaha or Bismarck where taxes are 3%. GOP plans to end this deduction will punish the foolish libs in blue states who have lived off of taxpayer largesse and built unsustainable handout states.

On the other hand, there's no reason that high prices in MFH should be subsidized by the Treasury

When the graduated income tax was being instituted, one of the arguments was that it would hit overpaid Yankees in places like NY especially hard.

True

Actually some have claimed that the ability to go to the opera is a benefit that should be calculated in income, like through a Black-Scholes model

James C. Scott wrote a whole book about this. He said it was the main reason people end up rebelling against governments, even if the rebellions fail.

the tax system shouldn't encourage people to live in high cost of living areas. factoring cost of living into taxation reduces the incentive of companies to migrate to lower cost areas.
