Notes: U.S. Average=100.0
  Because most of Alaska's revenue is derived from the taxation of oil production and the income of oil companies, the recent figures greatly overstate the actual tax collected from residents. To a lesser extent, this discrepancy in data is also true of other states that derive revenue from severance taxes.
