How much tax do you pay?

Rough estimate not including Medicare or SS.
I think if I make 50000, 5k goes to the feds and 2500 goes to the state.
Which is like 15 percent I think. And I'm happy to pay. Because I love my government. Besides, they could probably spend it better than I ever could.

Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

The first £30k I make I pay at about 20%. On everything above that, 40%.
I believe people in my wage bracket pay the most tax in the UK.
People with more to spare hire people to dodge tax.
And don't even get me started on companies.

If you go to school we get write off and substantial deductions too. However, a 4 year degree costs like 30k. Whereas if you study abroad you could get a 4year degree for like 22 dollars lol

Sales tax yo! They take all kinds of money on that sales tax and it adds up man.
-------------------- Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

I wish we could decide what programs our tax money goes into. Or at least 1 box that can be checked to not allow any of your taxes to go to military or DEA. I would feel much better about paying in then.
