Tax rate per capita times population are called tax receipts. Tax receipts divided by population are taxes paid per capita.
Let’s run the math for the top 4 using your tax revenue figures and by state population figures:
1 1
California population, 39,368,078. Taxes per capita, $4974.
2 2
Texas Population, 29,360,759. Taxes per capita, $2157.
3 4
Florida Population, 21,733,312. Taxes per capita, $2061
4 3
New York Population, 19,336,776. Taxes per capita, $4738.
The figures below include population changes and other things, but no taxes per capita calculations.

Of note, most of the higher tax burden states have lower, sometimes negative, such as New York State, population growth. Even more notably, the ones with the higher tax burdens are more likely to change their domicile state to a lower tax state, increasing potential tax burdens for those that remain. I wonder how crime rates compare between Blue and Red states? Rhetorical question.
The underlying point is Democrat policies tend to push away the productive, creating long term economic hardship for those that remain. Many inner cities used to be the economic center of a city. After a few decades of Democrat policies, once productive areas are now in ruins.
Hopefully, the Biden Administration will not repeat the mistakes of the past and will be a President for all of us. If wondering what to do, the Biden Administration should lean on their beloved big tech friends and ask AI for some answers. AI’s answer will likely come up with “Vote Republican”.
