Tax In the U.S.A. - 6+ Months to Government
The following is an example of an actual individual's tax rate. The
graphic artist's salary was $45K, effectively $48K when you add the extra
charges from the government. For more than six months of the year she
effectively worked for the state - politicians who represent maybe 20% of the
populous, if they are lucky, then decided what to do with more than six months
of her labor.

NOTE: These calculations do not incorporate all the taxes and levies an
individual pays.
These factual calculations prove the U.S.A. is now a Socialist Nation.
More frightening is the realization that individuals who represent less than
20% of the populous
take and decide what to do with more than half of our income.
