@nafmo@social.vivaldi.net @dirtyoldtown@mefi.social @lachralle@social.vivaldi.net Social Insurance and Sales taxes are about half as high in the US as the EU, but property taxes make up for a LOT of that difference, since they're generally several thousand dollars a year. Income taxes, on the other hand cap out at 49% if you live in California (and roughly the same in New York city, which has a municipal income tax as well as state and federal), because you pay income tax both to the State and Federal government.
