It seems that in most states you have to pay those taxes.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income_tax#United_States

The United States imposes an income tax on individuals and corporations. This tax is levied from the happening of an event, such as the payment of a wage or the purchase of property - the appreciation on the value of property, for example, is not taxed until that property is sold. The U.S. income tax was first imposed during the Civil War. Income taxes were enacted at various times until 1894, but were not imposed from 1895 until the 16th Amendment was ratified in 1913. However, ratification is disputed by some tax protestors along with other arguments about the validity of the U.S. income tax

Income tax may also be levied by individual U.S. states. In addition, some states allow individual cities to impose an additional income tax. However, not all states levy income tax. States that do not levy income tax include:

Alaska – no tax on individuals but there is a state corporate income tax
Florida – no tax on individuals but there is a state corporate income tax
Nevada
New Hampshire – does have tax on interest and dividends, wages earned in other states, and wages earned by non-residents
South Dakota
Tennessee – does have tax on interest and dividends
Texas – recently passed a gross receipts tax on businesses; the Texas Constitution places severe restrictions on passage of a personal income tax
Washington - Has a corporate tax called the "Business and Operations Tax"
Wyoming
