States are essentially free to set tax policy as they see fit in the US. For fun, I took a screenshot of the instructions given by NYS DTF on how to complete this segment of the tax form. If you're wondering why taxing in the US is so complicated, this is partly why. If you're also wondering why people like states with no income tax, again, this is also why.

That’s what’s spooking them. At $65K in Arizona, one paycheck ($1938) is incapable of paying the mortgage which makes it somewhat risky, and that assumed 3% of pay going to a 401k and $50 bi-weekly health insurance contributions. They can rent and travel…or own a home.

There’s something to be said where in the US, those are stereotyped as glasses worn mostly black women and *very* liberal white women, but in Italy, it doesn’t quite code with a negative connotation. And I happen to like those glasses on her. Some women could use more bold, fashionable frames. :-)

IIRC, this is what some of the newer versions look like.
