Why are we Europeans better than Americans, you think we pay more taxes but we don't?

Question

If you add up your taxes you pay more, water, school, land, capital gains, road, state and federal taxes. thats about 51% and you don't get the perks like we get. Free health care and we win any lottery our government don't tax us. Paid vacation and unlimited sick days.Those are just the taxes I know and there are more.

Answer 1

I do not think I am better than anyone else (American).

I do know that I have to work very hard here to survive.  Two jobs and think I need another one just to make ends meet.  Cracked a tooth, need a crown $1000.  Insurance pays half, so I have to come up with $500 just for one tooth.   That is what one of my jobs pay per week.  So all my hard work down the drain just because I cracked a tooth.

Taxes----------don't even get me started.

God, I hate George Bush!!!!!!

Edit::   please do not associate me with these other Avatars.  There are many Americans that are educated, kind, and respectful of other cultures.   Just none of them are on Yahoo tonight----except me, I guess.   Bummer Dude!

Answer 2

You just proved that you aren't better with such an ignorant statement/question.

Answer 3

Oh, yay, your taxes are bigger than our taxes and I can be sicker for longer than you?  What ...

Are you wittering about? My country doesn't pay water taxes, some countries choose not to use the euro - some do by choice and aren't even part of Europe. Does your country tax sick days? Do you know of states who do? If they choose to, there are two systems that work by mutual consent.  Do you honestly think a voluntary federation is some kind of football team? All I can say is I've lived in both and  you wouldn't be rated highly as a cheerleader in either! I hadn't realised that rudeness was a competitive sport.

Answer 4

Keep it.  USAUSAUSAUSAUSAUSAUSAUSAUSUSAUSAUSAUSAUS...

Wait till the Olympics - we'll kick your Bu++s.

Answer 5

How racist!  If you like living where you live, so be it, don't be judging other countries!  USA, USA, USA!  ÃƒÂƒÃ‚Âœ

You would never hear me say anything about how fugly British peoples teeth are!  Use some of that free health care to take care of that ****.

Answer 6

How does a difference in taxes mean you are better than us? That says something about your intellect you troll.

Answer 7

"Free" health care? Don't you know that your taxes pay for your "FREE" health care?

I'm sure you think there are benefits to being a citizen of whatever European country you are in. Good for you.

I am an American and proud of it. Don't trash my country and stay in your own, please.
