Alabama, owing to its archaic constitution, which was designed in 1901 to favor wealthy owners of large tracts of property. Thus this state has the lowest property taxes in the nation and has sales taxes that rank near the top. This cruelly regressive taxation system places a disproportionate burden on the lower income classes, who are forced to spend a very high proportion of their disposable income on consumer goods, such as food and clothing, which are subject to sales taxes.
