We actually pay 50-60% income tax aswell.
+ pretty huge tax on owing houses
+ about 300% or something tax on new cars.
+ environmental taxes on electricity, water, getting rid of water etc.
+ 25% wat on all you buy
(on water for instance I pay twice as much in tax and wat, as I pay for the water itself)
