What is the tax in the USA?

Question

what percent is it in?

Answer 1

depends

Answer 2

Income tax depends on how much you make.

It runs around 33% average. There is not flat rate.

Of course, if you are really rich you pay tax accountants to find off-shore shelters, etc. to decrease the amount you pay. If you get bad advice you end up like Wesley Snipes and Willie Nelson and owe millions of back taxes.

Unless you are asking about property tax or business taxes. Property tax in California is limited to 1% (thanks to Howard Jarvis and Proposition 13 which spear-headed tax reform across the nation) and business tax varies city to city and can be 6% to 7.75%.

Answer 10

your first three months pay belongs to the government. so around 25% but that does not include any health insurance - retirement funds - eye and dental care. at the end you will wind up paying 30 -35% of your earnings to taxes and "BENEFITS"

I would like to add that health insurance should not be called a benifit unless the company pays for it - so if we are gonna call a janitor a custodial engineer we should call benefits "individually paid necessities" or something like that
