- icode 15y agoNormaly I would not answer someone who calls my writing "bs". But since its a public discussion, I want to get the facts straight: I pay 42% taxes on income. I pay medical insurance on my own. I dont have unemployment or retirement insurance.
- ckuehne 15y agoAre you sure? You need an income of over 300k Euro to reach 42% taxes in Germany. Not saying, that you are not making that much. But sometimes people get confused between marginal and average tax rate.
- yaix 15y agoThe highest step is 42%, but overall you pay much less. On the first 8k you pay nothing for instance, then you pay some 20% on the next 20k or so, and so on. The last step is 42% for everything above 200k or so.
