Question: How does Americans like paying 86% of their income to taxes?

( Back )

Answer #1:

I think.....that if you think Americans pay 86% of their income in tax, then you don't know WHAT the hell you're talking about.

Answer #2:

Many hidden taxes in the things we buy.

Answer #3:

Your guess isn't even close.

Answer #4:

no, you are mad...and stupid

Answer #5:

Taxation without representation? What about my state congress, the senator, the governor, the mayor? I elected my representatives and they represent me


go back to civics class kid

Answer #6:

more like 40-50% thank you very much

Answer #7:

What do you expect? Obama and the American hating libs are in charge

Answer #8:

See I live in Texas so I only pay 8.25% in sales tax, but we have no State tax so your whole question is with out merit. Ask again after you spend a minute thinking before inflicting your stupidity on the rest of us, OK ?

Answer #9:

Your guess is way, way high. The top tax rate is less than 40 percent for the federal government. The states can add a few points, and the sales tax adds a few points. There are many other taxes, of course, but you'd have to add 40 percent to get to 86 or so.

Answer #10:

It's probably more like 35-40%. Where did you get 86% from?

Answer #11:

yeah, really really mad, almost

Answer #12:

Americans are not paying yet 86% income tax.

Answer #13:

No tax on groceries, bub. How do you think that the military, educational system, police and fire departments, FDA, CDC, roads and bridges, etc. are paid? We have representation in our Senate and House of Representatives, who (gasp!) are the ones that pass legislation regarding taxes.

Answer #14:

Am I mad? No, but I am not entirely influenced by your delusional rant, so why would I be mad? 86% is your guess of what we pay in taxes. 86 is my guess of your IQ.

Answer #15:

The income tax is unconstitutional, always was and always will be.

Capitalism -- free market may not be perfect but it's the best we have. Cannot legislate human heart (greed, hate, etc.) Only God can change hearts when the person is willing.
