I guess these states think they can pull money from the sky ? Revenue needs to come from somewhere.<p>Plus with the new tariffs, I doubt removing taxes will help much.

I don't understand how grocery prices are still expensive in the US now.<p>[1]: <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/08/15/us-news/trump-blasts-kamala-harris-high-grocery-prices-and-maduro-plan-while-standing-in-front-of-cheerios-meat/" rel="nofollow">https://nypost.com/2024/08/15/us-news/trump-blasts-kamala-ha...</a>
