I live in Europe and have never been stolen from, and I‘ve been on plenty vacations abroad. And in many places you do get free tap water (eg London or Vienna) with food. IDK why you would care about the price of tap water though since that’s probably 0,1% of your traveling budget for a city trip.
Taxes are country specific, you‘ll find some EU countries with lower taxation than your average US state, eg Bulgaria.
Being rude on Twitter won’t land you in jail, please.
> why exactly would I want to visit Europe?
Business, sightseeing, and cheap dentistry.
- qwytw 3y ago> why you would care about the price of tap water Because I have to ask and unless I'm explicit they'll bring a 330 mL glass bottle which is extremely annoying. That forces me to drink beer all the time just to avoid that which is not exactly ideal. > eg Bulgaria The VAT there is 20% which is much higher than any place in the US.
- fknorangesite 3y ago> That forces me to drink beer all the time My opinion of American tourists is such that I can't tell if this is a joke, and I'm Canadian, ffs.
- manmal 3y agoOh I thought we were talking income tax. VAT rates are not a concern if prices are generally low, like in Bulgaria. Drinking beer so you don’t need to drink water from a bottle - well ok, you do you.
