Recently the U.S. Census Bureau released its report on state and local government tax revenues for 2010. It is not a very uplifting reading for Wyoming taxpayers:
From the top of the recession in 2006 to its bottom in 2010, the state economy - also known as state GDP - grew by 14.8 percent in current prices;
During the same period of time, local governments saw their tax revenues increase by a whopping 29.7 percent.
