    13% sales tax is close to what some states pay in the US. for instance, arizona and illinois pay 11.something %
    and health care here doesn't involve standing in line at all. the national health care works like any insurance plan
    there are private hospitals and there is private insurance here too.

    As far as I know not a single state pays sales tax on food. Connecticut doesn't.

    For tax purposes you're not purchasing food at a restaurant, you're purchasing service. So I was wrong about states with sales tax, fine, sucks to be them. CT doesn't, and I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that we do not have a federal sales tax so shove it.

    a lot of states do. tennessee, arkansas, missouri for sure do. montana has no sales tax and has a high income tax but tn has no income tax and high sales.
