   I don't need no stupid report telling where the best place to live is.

I picked criteria like high personal freedom, climate variety, cheap living, and low crime rate.  I'm easy to please. Oklahoma's taxes are dead center at #25. Wisconsin , New Hampshire, Vermont, and Alaska get points for having snow.  Oregon get points for weed decriminalization and wild climate east of the Cascades. Too bad JDFP ain't here, I'll be glad to instruct him in making his own ciggies so there's no taxes. Oklahoma can do whatever it wants, because I don't case since I have some really nice tobaccy growing right now and even have dip left over from last year's harvest.
