Europe vs US taxes
[QUOTE=InformedConsent;43024701]Exactly. European countries tax[B] regressively[/B], meaning that a greater tax burden is borne by lower- and middle-income earners than is borne by higher income earners, which is [B]the exact opposite[/B] of how the US Government taxes us. And don't forget they have a 20-25% VAT tax that EVERYONE pays. THAT'S how they pay for all those goodies.
