Peru taxes = 19%

But when you pay for stuff, the tax is already included.

Must suck like Lita to live in Peru. 19%, that is less than in the UK and we are graced with cash.

Lita in Peru... she used to train once in my country for a few days before going to Mexico. To pay her training, she had to work as a prostitute.

The New Jersey tax is 7%. It's not horrible in retrospect, but it certainly adds up, especially when you have enough money for the thing in the first place, but can't buy it because of the tax. :-/

I hate the McDonald's Dollar Menu because of that; it's not $1.00, but $1.07, which ruins any hope of 'using a dollar to buy a burger,' which Ads originally said.

It's not the worst thing in the world. Jersey Gardens Mall has a much higher tax than the State; I remember a few years ago, when I went to buy a Kurt Angle action figure, the orginal price was $6.00 and some change. When I went to pay, the price came out to $8-something, which I did not have. Two dollar tax on a 6 dollar object?

That sucks Andrew. You could have utilised the 5 Finger Discount. Problem is, you may get caught and arrested.

For Kurt Angle, maybe I wouldn't mind paying $2 for tax. Now if it was Batista, I'd flip the finger at the cash register.

Incidentaly, my Cousin has worked the 5-finger discount numerous times, but has been arrested a few times less than he's actually tried it, which I guess is an alright record. Not something I would do, though.

Besides, that mall has lots of security, and they would have caught me even before I walked out of the store!

Well, in my hometown, we get someone to do that for you. What we do is cause a distraction, such as asking a price while another Person kicks your wanted product out of the store. He then runs off and you go to get it for the shop keeper but pick itup and run off.

I have never done it but was told about it by a chav.

...And left to go to another company that has less tour dates, offers him less money, and has many less fans and Television ratings.

Yeah, sounds like he sold out to me. :rolleyes:

I honestly don't get the whole "He sold out" thing. What makes a wrestler a sell out? Is CM Punk a sell out? He left Ring of Honor for The WWE.

Nobody is a sell out. The wrestling world is a dog eat dog business, where feelings and morals cannot be considered when making decisions. This is why Vince owns the wrestling world.

Okay, fool.

175/155 = 1.12903226 -> 112.903226% with tax included

112.903226 -100 = 12.903226% tax on Canada

AHHH!!! I'm learning again!

People, people. When we're talking about taxes, aren't you generalising things a bit? I'm pretty sure that Australia isn't the only country that has different taxes on different items and such.

There's something called VAT (Value added taxes) in the Phils.

The U.S. has different taxes on different items, too. Basically, we get taxed on everything. It seems like the government charges us for waking up in the damn morning (actually, even if we don't wake up; if we croak, our family members end up getting taxed for that, too).

That's the key phrase. The U.S.A. itself (the government) is rich. The citizens aren't.

For every multimillionaire everyone sees on the "success stories" on TV, there are a thousand people sleeping under the fucking highway overpass with everything they own in a damn backpack. The separation in classes here is wide.
