If you are high income, of course you don't notice differences in levels of regressive taxes on consumption (including real property taxes, which, while not nominally this, for most people end up as a—direct for homeowners and indirect for renters—consumption tax on housing) as you do levels of progressive taxes on income (which is why frequently the income-tax-heavy states with higher average tax burdens also have lower tax burdens at equivalent income levels for median and lower incomes.)
