I WAS BORN IN A SMALL TOWN. . .




What a lovely small town I live in! Too bad the taxes are sky-high and rising. . . my town has the highest sales tax rate in the state of Tennessee, and Tennessee has the highest sales tax rate of ALL the 50 states!!!(Source: http://www.fairtaxation.org/facts/sales_tax_rank.php) While our property taxes are relatively low, compared to other states, they are ALSO on the rise. Our city/county taxes were raised last year by a whopping 40 percent! Ouch! It's getting more and more expensive to live the small-town life. . .


Still, it is such a quaint little town. . .
