Multiple Tax Rates

The client I am building a store front for has nexus in 42 states. That means sales tax has to be charged for anyone purchasing product from any one of those states. I have set up my zones and now when I test it in the tax line item on step 2 it looks like this```
Sub-Total:

$7.19
United Parcel Service (9.00lbs) (Ground):

$2,700.26
VT TAX 6.0% + AR TAX 6.0% + AZ TAX 5.0% + CA TAX 6.25% + CO TAX 2.9% + CT TAX 6.0% + GA TAX 4.0% + IA TAX 5.0% + ID TAX 6.0% + IL TAX 6.25% + IN TAX 6.0% + KS TAX 5.3% + KY TAX 6.0% + LA TAX 4.0% + MA TAX 5.0% + ME TAX 5.0% + MI TAX 6.0% + MO TAX 4.225% + MS TAX 6.0% + ND TAX 5.0% + NE TAX 5.5% + NJ TAX 7.0% + NM TAX 5.0% + NV TAX 6.5% + NY TAX 4.0% + OH TAX 5.0% + OK TAX 4.5% + PA TAX 6.0% + RI TAX 7.0% + SD TAX 4.0% + TN TAX 7.0% + TX TAX 6.25% + UT TAX 5.0% + VA TAX 4.0% + WA TAX 6.5% + WI TAX 5.0% + WV TAX 6.0% + WY TAX 4.0%:

$3,136.45

1) You have to define 42 Zones each separate the other. meaning in :
Zone Definitions - Taxes, Payment and Shipping, 42 lines one for each state. Note: Status Red
2) Then you need to "grab" One by one.
   Take as an example California And Click on "details"
Next Screen ALL Blank. click Insert
Country Unites States  --> Zone --> California
3) go back, Should Turn the Status on "Yellow"
4) Repeat for all States
5) Admin ---> Location/tax -->Tax Rates And Fill One per each state.
Curiosity kinda of low for California 6.25% (What County so low??)
Priority 1
 So the Zone for Tax Rate and Zone Definition Will Match and will charge the matching State Sales tax 

What I think happened here is that you Have one Zone Name and you added the 42 States in Only One so that is the reason that prompt all states at the same time
If I mistaken I am sorry, That is the way I did for 2 states, Nevada/California and it works fine
