Yes, states have income taxes as well as gas taxes and other taxes. I live in California and we pay 60 cents per gallon in taxes on gas. I wouldn't escape California state income taxes even if I move out of state because any money I have earned in California they will tax me on.

∙ 6y agoMost states have the legal ability to impose income taxes upon their businesses and/or residents. This is mainly accomplished by action taken by their state legislature and signature of the Governor of this State. Many States also require a Constitutional change to the State Constitution or laws that are done by a vote of the citizens of the State. It all depends on the State Laws and Organization of the State in Question. States have many different ways of raising revenue for their governmental expenditures. Florida, for instance has no income tax, but due to their vast tourism, they raise the revenue needed with taxes such as property taxes and hotel/motel taxes. These are often popular in States that attract tourists as the locals see that a large portion of their revenue is paid by visitors to their State rather than paid by the residents. Expenses for the operation of the government is raised in one manner or another, therefore taxes are paid by one group or another, and usually a combination of taxes. The fight is usually over who pays what share of the revenue.
