State taxes can come in many forms, including not only income taxes, but also property taxes, sales taxes, use taxes, excise taxes, business taxes, etc.

The two primary sources of state revenue that involve taxes on income are personal income taxes and corporate income taxes. Personal income taxes are levied on the earnings of individuals, while corporate income taxes are imposed on the profits of businesses. Both types of taxes contribute significantly to state budgets, funding essential services and programs.
The state governments do not receive all their money from the Federal government. The majority of their funds come from state income taxes, property taxes and sales taxes.
State income taxes can be progressive, meaning higher income earners pay a larger percentage of their income in taxes compared to lower earners. However, the structure varies by state; some states have a flat tax rate for all income levels, while others implement multiple tax brackets with increasing rates. Additionally, certain states do not impose an income tax at all. Thus, the progressivity of state income taxes depends on the specific tax policies of each state.
