At least it's not as bad as Mexico New Taxes summary for 2014 - The Yucatan TimesI don't discriminate, I also boycott domestic U.S. travel venues/cities that have the same sorts of tax 'rape'. For what it's worth, I have never been to either NYC or Chicago, and can't even imagine why I'd ever want to ! My hard earned income $'s are not meant to satisfy someone else's twisted income redistribution schemes, most of which ends up wasted anyway via govt. corruption and bureaucratic waste!
