Why such high tax? |
About 80% of the average income is spent on bills. Britain is part of Europe so why are we not taxed the same as Europe? Then there are all the other scams like the conjestion charge and council tax. How are people expected to raise a family, these days? You are right in feeling that we are over taxed, in Europe they wouldn't put up with it, look at the french. This country is becoming ridiculous with its taxes, scams like congestion charge and parking tickets, we pay 拢90 per six months to tax our car then can't park it anywhere (especially in London) without a parkig fine (a sneaky form of tax). The problem is we are British. We complain and moan but never actually do anything about it. If everybody refused to pay Council Tax or a small amount at least - what are the authorities going to do, jail each and everyone of us. We are a bit spineless and let the government walk all over us. People are entitled to raise families within a reasonable earning bracket, but if you calculate how much one child costs nobody would have them, because very few could afford them, this is right is it. More of a worry is how many people have now been brainwashed into thinking that the tax system in this country is fair and just. Very Big Brother if you ask me. Still keeps John Prescott in Jags.

I know it is hard when you see 15 year old girls with kids living off the state but please think what those kids will grow up to be like! Denmark I beleive pays 60% of their earning on tax! 1 My council tax is 拢160 a month, this is for a 2 bed housing association house, another unfair one is being legally forced to have a tv licence even if you never watch the BBC channels Because the government are thieving bastards. That's why. They will be taxing the air we breathe next. were not really that different to the rest of europe, just taxed in different ways. e.g. nearly everyone in france pays at least 50% income tax |
