Plenty close. Just add things up. State and local sales, property and income taxes, thats at least 10%, then federal income and payroll taxes, at least another 15%, then employer payroll taxes, thats another 8.5% (in effect paid by the employee through lower wages), employer health care costs at least another 10% which works the same as employer payroll taxes, as it is in effect paid by the employee.
And what do ordinary Americans get out of that 40%+ in taxes compared to other countries?
Germany has lower unemployment rate, overall lower cost of living (food, rent, etc.), MUCH better infrastructure, higher standard of living/quality of life, better safety net/social welfare, universal healthcare, better work environment, mandatory PTO’s, free public institutions, better public transportation, higher life expectancy, - yet still has much higher population density than the US and has 83.3 million people (still large). What happened to ‘America the great?’ Lmao
Please, no replies that says “Move to Germany” or “America has higher population” all stupid excuses.
Thanks!
This ridiculous, hysterical hyperbole is getting old and tiresome. Trump is not the greatest president, or even a particularly good one, but he is not anywhere close to acting like a dictator. If anything, the far left anti-Trump crowd is acting like Nazis, persecuting, threatening, and harassing their political opponents, destroying property, and trying to silence those with whom they disagree. Real brownshirt tactics there.
In exactly what way are Trump's policies akin to those of the Nazi party? Specifics, please.

Um, if we get rid of New Jersey, how much do those metrics increase? I have a source that I'm not going to share but it's pretty much that the USA is the best nation in the world in every possible metric once we exclude new jersey.

ignore them, for they are nil. Trump is transforming the US for the better - better for the US and better for the world.
