Anyone. Estimate the taxes on $100.00 earned.........LOL?

Question

Earned ---$100.00
Income tax---$25.00
fuel tax---
utilities---
pack of cigs.----$6.00
2 beer---$2.00
all tax included services
property taxes / rent----
dog tags, registration, vet.--
enviroment taxes, fees---
credit cards, interest---
etc.

Depending on how long that bill stays in circulation , I'm estimating3 years, that $100.00 that i earned ended up making the government upwards of tens of thousands of dollars in taxes.

One more bit of FYI:
The Gov. of Canada brought in Income taxes as a way to pay for the war bills. As with the GST, It was indicated ,or assumed, that it would only last till it was paid for. What is that? 2 or 3 generations ago ? The GST was created to pay off the national debt. What? 10 / 20 years? O.K. We owe just as much today as we did then. The solution? Fire all the creative, imaginative accountants. Create an agency to take over the pay downs of thoes 2 debts. Make all government departments work within their pre-approved budgets.

Answer 1

Think about indirect taxes you pay, like the increase in prices for goods you consume because of taxes on the company that makes those goods. The government makes a great deal of money by raping you, yet they still finda a way to spend more than they take in.

Answer 2

You should run for office, you have a better grasp on things then all of the pollutions.

Answer 3
