States do not enact tax changes in a vacuum. Every tax change will affect a state's competitive position relative to its neighbors, as well as globally.

Despite the tax cuts passed by the federal government, Americans will spend more on taxes than they spend on food, clothing, and housing combined.

The slowing of unit sales will lessen one pressure point lying behind the abnormally high rates of change in median sales prices.

Alaska, in many respects, is a cheaper tax place to do business and should be a very attractive place for companies to locate or expand in.

If you were to look at Alaska simply with its corporate tax code compared to the rest of the United States, it would rank very poorly because it's a very complicated corporate tax system, very high tax rates, but that is offset and balanced by the fact that Alaska does not have a personal income tax and does not have a sales tax.
