I've asked people that question in the past, and have been told "nothing. I got a refund.". Proving to me that some people don't realize just what they are paying. Thanks for your responses.

A small fortune. I agree that it is virtually impossible to figure how much you are ACTUALLY paying by the time you figure in all the nitpicking little taxes (like sales & gasoline tax), nevermind those paid by businesses that are built into the price of what you buy w/o being called taxes.

Probably $2,500 for federal and $1,000 to the state for income taxes.
Payroll, sales and excise? I'd guess over 6,000

that question is virtually impossible to answer, since there are hidden taxes in many of the things that you buy, such as gasoline taxes, and very few people can accurately estimate the amount of sales taxes they paid.

No idea. I know about what I paid in income taxes and property taxes (NOYB, BTW), but when it comes to the sales taxes and hidden excise taxes it's impossible to say.
