You think a 20% sales tax is bad?

Then don't vote for Ron Paul.

They should change the term from "taxes" to "tributes", it would be more fitting.

At least 1/3 of your entire income goes to tax, and not speaking of the tax on products.... it's insane, 19%!!!!

You'll be alright, it's only 20%. Be thankful GayMax didn't make it user specified tax. Then it would be 100% tax LOL.

I love how Americans complain about taxes. AMAZING. the U.S. has shit taxes compared to places like Holland, Noway, Sweden, France, etc. Also, the health care system in the U.S. is shit compared to those countries too, especially the scandinavian countries. Taxes go to improving infrastructure and suppoting the country. thus they're necessary. but in the U.S. if you want to increase taxes ou're labeled a communist or a socialist...stupid narrowminded americans :roll:


oh, btw, I'm American :D

lol those unfortunate enough to be stuck in the lower or lower middle class often take up ideals like this. Personally I enjoy not having socialized healthcare. I can invest in a couple of healthcare comapnies wait till the next time people freak out about diseases and buy up experimental drugs and supersized prices. Then pocket the dividends from my stock sell them at the top of the price. Thanks to BUSH there is very little tax involved here so its pretty much pure profit. This is NOT possible in countries with higher taxes and socialized healthcare.

I love america =)

I hope it's not going to be all in one night.

BTW, there will most likely be fortresses on every trade spot. kSRO recently added a new fortress near the Bandit Den.

LOL. Typical liberal. You want to change the world huh? You are free to leave and do it yourself. We want to keep things just the way there were, before homo marriages, illegal immigrants, and murdering babies. You people (liberals) make me sick.
