The Oregonian: Oregon’s vulnerable tax ranking: Editorial
media mention“Other rankings concur with the Tax Foundation’s assessment that Oregon has relatively low business taxes, in part because the state doesn’t have a sales tax. Groups that emphasize fairness also tend to score Oregon well. WalletHub says Oregon has the second-fairest tax system; the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy ranks it third. Broad rankings that include corporate and individual taxes tend to look less favorably at Oregon. A recent Forbes ranking placed Oregon as the 16th worst state. If you look only at corporate income taxes, Oregon has the 17th highest top bracket.”
