Those are the same states that would be for a flat rate tax or even more so a flat fee tax, but I'm sure you wouldn't be, so where's the hypocrisy? Progressive tax rates exacerbate the issue you're pointing out and they are strongly opposed by conservatives, and supported by California, New York liberals.
Being a liberal and complaining about high tax rates, while blaming those against high taxes is kinda rich no?
Another point, those places also would be more amendable to pushing more responsibilities on the states away from federal govt reducing even more the imbalance of higher federal taxes paid by higher cost states.
