NORDIC I don't know how anyone does it in England .......

[OzmO]

I was talking to some of your country men about taxes in England.....

Fvck that shit.    40% if you make over 42,000 pounds.  40% if your assets are over 250,000 pounds.   

Ick.

No wonder you are a conservative.

I'm still aghast over this.

I was reminded in the conversation how conservative i am.

Canada Tax Rate:

29% of ll income over $123,000

Plus we pay provincial tax depending on the province of 10% to 17%.

Which equals 39% to 46% of your total income.

Screw that.  Don't they also use tax dollars to support the church?

Honestly, not trying to diss - but at 40/45% I really feel for people. Then I guess it's all relevant - people get used to it, so those at 40% would be used to it, while those lower don't get it. Same as 15/20% still pertubs me, and I can't even see myself paying that and keeping my lifestyle where it is.

I don't know.  I think it's for health care and social services, roads, schools etc...

Sorry guys. I just wanted to see what the reaction would be to the typical right-wing, conservative, monosyllabic American paisan response.

Norwegians pay about 50% tax and they have the highest living standard in the world.

High taxes suck but it doesn't mean the end of the world.

Yeah, but Norway is a very small country compared to the US, and our system of power is too big to introduce anything that smells like social policy. I mean, the country was put through a civil war because a handfull of Southerners did not want to stop enslaving people. Think about that.

I agree; the US is cannot be reformed; too many special interests.

It wouldn't be that bad if there wasn't a sub culture of immigrants and low lives on incapacity benefits whom the majority of that money goes too.

I simply hate socialism - slow communism. It's created institutionalised decay of society in Britain.

Note I'm not conservative, I'd label myself left of centre at most.
