a 50-State-at-once tax calculator

This is a simple CLI tool for calculating state income tax in all 50 states at once for a given taxable income.
To run the program, either build it beforehand and call the executable, or simply run: go run taxify.go -income=xxxxxx
Results are returned in descending order by default, though this can be reversed by invoking the flag -ascending=true
In addition to the report that will automatically print to the terminal, you can specify other command line arguments to shape the output:
- -plot=true will run the plot with default values
- -top=x (default value is 7) will plot only the top x number of states. top here depends on the value for the flag -ascending, which defaults to false.
- -ascending=true will rank the states from lowest to highest total income tax for the given income.
- -numSteps=x is less important, and specifies the number of discrete calculations to be made between $0 and income to use when plotting. A higher value will lead to a smoother and more accurate plot, but there's diminishing returns. The default is 100, which works quite well. An example plot:
