Sure except taxes aren't that high in California. 30-45% is a much more realistic range for income taxes (state + federal + payroll).

- dschuler 10y agoWhere are they higher, in the US? It's hard to imagine paying more than that and still not getting free healthcare and 4 weeks min. vacation, as you would in Germany, for example.
- laurencerowe 10y agoThe US spends almost as much on public healthcare as EU countries - a couple of %GDP less than Germany but the same as the UK - and then the same amount again of private healthcare. That it gets so much less for its money shows how effective the medical-insurance complex js been at lobbying. In California we enjoy US levels of public services with European levels of taxation and landowners get rich. (Taxation doesn't pay for vacation.)
- refurb 10y agoWhat's the connection between taxes and the amount of vacation you get?
