If you want a tax haven, go to Russia.

That's funny. Russians who want a tax haven have been going to Cyprus.

New Hampshire has no sales tax and no income tax. Real estate taxes are high, so don't own a home.

Some border areas offer very real benefits. Washington/Oregaon and Wyoming/Montana offer tax avoidance by making most purchases in the State with no sales tax, while paying no income tax in the other one.

Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, Texas, Nevada and Alaska all are free of one of the big two either sales or income tax.
