The Punchline

The biggest tax procrastinators

The company that makes Turbo Tax has come out with a list of the cities that procrastinate on their taxes the most.

Portland, Oregon is number 10.

Minneapolis is number 7.

LA: number 4.

Washington D.C. residents are the third biggest procrastinators — though maybe that’s because their taxes don’t buy them any representation in Congress.

Number one is San Francisco: What’s their excuse?
