I seem to remember a certain Secretary of State (and former Massachusetts senator) who registered his yacht in Rhode Island to avoid taxes. Everybody was up in arms, including me. If you don't like your state's laws, move. Or elect people who will change the laws to your liking.
let's be fair. IIRC he actually moored his yacht there and was able to legally register/tax it there so he was not breaking any laws.

Fair? Bigrick was referring to the hypocrisy of a professed pro-tax US Senator from MA (in 2010) who parked a $7,000,000 yacht in RI to avoid a $437,500 MA sales tax & $70,000 MA excise tax - who only did a mea culpa and 'voluntarily' paid the taxes after being exposed.
