Re: Fixing the system
We now have approximately a 40% compulsive tax which is higher or the equivalent to most socialist nations.
​
I actually take the time to check each year. When I add my big three; Federal, State, and Property, I have never paid more than 16% of my gross income. Sales tax here is 6%. Even if you consider FICA, I am under 30%.
​
When I was in Kuwait, I was talking to some soldiers in the Spanish Army. One Private said he paid almost 75% of his gross in taxes. Where do your figures come from?
