Surely what you want is the best data about good places to start a company.
The real answer: it depends on your criteria. Delaware is the cheapest place to incorporate, but nobody knows where it is. Nevada is the best place if your business involves lots of cash and/or hookers. Silicon valley may still be the best if you want to meet like-minded geeks. Hollywood stays in LA both for the infrastructure and the weather. Michigan has great incentives right now if you don't mind the cold winters...see the problem?
I was looking for numbers, like the incorporation tax and state taxes for each type of company. If the data was neatly put together somewhere, we could all draw our own conclusions.
