Top US States to establish your start-up company

Maybe this sounds like an advanced topic, though it is important to think where it is best to incorporate your business once you are ready to go for it. Today, as I continue my test of FeedDemon from Newsgator, I came accross one very interesting post on one of the daily blogs that I read on entrepreneurship. It was relaying a list of top (and bottom) 10 states, from tax purposes, to incorporate a business from a report from the Tax Foundation. Apparently, and I didn't know that there even was such a foundation, they releases a yearly "2008 State Business Tax Climate Index". The Index ranks states based on the taxes that matter most to businesses and business investment: corporate tax, individual income tax, sales tax, unemployment tax, property tax, etc.

Here is the list:o

Top 10 - Best States for business 1. Wyoming 2. South Dakota 3. Nevada 4. Alaska 5. Florida 6. Montana 7. New Hampshire 8. Texas 9. Delaware 10. Oregon

Bottom 10 - Worst States for business 41. Maine 42. Minnesota 43. Nebraska 44. Vermont 45. Iowa 46. Ohio 47. California 48. New York 49. New Jersey 50. Rhode Island

Florida is there. So it seems that I am in a good place...
