For the roads!
Taxation is theft. it's usually 15% in Czechia. You pay 23 if your income is 36 times bigger then average monthly income (or you have high capital gains over some limit). You pay 23 "only" from the diff.
The table does not take into account the mandatory insurance. 33.1% is the social security insurance and 13.5% is health insurance. And you have to pay those. In some countries those are part of the income tax... People in general including many foreign employers are perplexed with the actual cost of employment over here.
exactly. you get ~ 65% of your income and then you pay ~20% from every item or service you buy. Not to mention how much the employer has to pay for your behalf. The result is: You get 50% for your work if you're lucky.
In Romania, the net salary is 57.2% from gross salary… so that 10% is just for additional income… and even that, is taxed again with different other taxes, depending how you use it 😁
This means that everything above 10% is avoidable. Just don't get salary, make everything additional income.
Not so easy to apply, but yes… this is the goal
Damn Sweden and Finland ain't even pretending no more, they're just straight up asking for protection money, add inflation on that and you ain't getting jack for your labour
This is littlebit better picture, but the data are from 2021… https://www.brusselsreport.eu/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/t1.jpg
These often don't include social and health taxes (called "insurance"). Which is kinda a big deal in some countries.
It is false. In Bulgaria it is 20%
to see if people are waking up .... it would be interesting to compare this with the per capita rate of BTC holders/users. GM 🙃
