Tax Exodus States: Oh, Really?

Fox News is making much noise about a Fiscal Times article that has highlighted five states that Fiscal Times claims people are leaving due to high taxes. I guess people who lean right are so used to being lied to by various right-wing news outlets that they don’t even question the data they read. (Oh, life is so rosy in the red fog of the right!)
