Keeping in mind that income taxes aren't the only kind the government levies, what percent of your income would you agree to hand over, in order to have the sort of government that you'd prefer?

I don't know what I'd pay for the govt I would like to have.  There are some days that I'd be willing to chew off my own arm to get out of traffic though.

I don't know; universal healthcare, improved roads, schools, being carried around traffic on a litter trimmed in gold....

Arkansas? No.... hang on.....
 
Ah, Canada! Well... that's probably about what I pay; I'm trying to think of our upper limit on personal taxes, it's maybe 33% now? But, we spend a huge amount on the military, that's a big difference between us and other Western nations....

i'd give up to 20 but that's it.  if the idiotic government spent our fucking tax dollars responsibly, they wouldn't need more than that from people. 

well great, now i'm pissed Level...the whole tax thing is especially irksome to me becasue i ended up owing 1,200.00 buckaroos this year and i have a hefty portion of my paycheck removed in taxes each month already.  huh, guess i'm still harboring some anger from the 15th.
