  • The issue is not that. I live in Germany and we literally have the highest and most complicated taxes in the world. I have no problem paying taxes, I only have a problem when it’s literally 45% of my income, of which half doesn’t even benefit me. People are paying for other people when they don’t even belong in the group who are even in risk of needing them.

    Rent? Ok, at least I get something back but it’s a negative investment currently.

    Insistence insurance? It covers the most basic stuff which higher income individuals don’t need because they can buy private insurance, so they basically pay for nothing.

    Job insurance? Most high income individuals have a good work background, they don’t can find job super easy.

    There’s more little insurance stuff that doesn’t benefit the higher income people at all and they can’t opt out of it. And all that for them to be carrying the whole tax system. 25% including health insurance seems reasonable to me, not 45%.
