But it's still lower than the US...
how can that be when we have no socialized health care system and

Yet German retirements are more lucrative than US also.
Not to mention their vacations while they're working.

Care to mention the company your doing legal work for, and why they

Then you're paying taxes.
It makes no difference to me whether it's local or federal.

Oh, the old Republitard; "I'm an American and studio isn't routine".
Well Keith, I live here all the time and you don't.
I've never been out of the country and have no desire to.
This is what makes you a lousy lawyer; you're disconnected from the
reality of the here and now, while you protect the wealthy's wealth
and not the rights of the poor.
I got news for you Keith, Americans by overwhelming majority do not
give a rats ass about the wealthy and their tax breaks and non-
sacrifice to their country in time of war.
More Wingnut spin and rhetoric by crony capitalists who don't even
live here, such as Keith and Annointed,
who believe that crony capitalism, de-regulation, religious
indoctrination, police states, prisons and *et. al*, are all really
wonderful economic and political social systems, if we only had the
right folks to implement them and run them!
Keith no matter how many times you say it, or pay for it to be said;
the facts are the American people overwhelmingly *do not* believe your
philosophy that states; "if only the rich had just a bit more money
from not paying taxes, everything would be so much better".
If only the CEO's made 500 times earnings above the average American
instead of the 350 times earnings they currently enjoy...
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
Care to remind us how Bush Jr. stated the above?
No I doubt it, I'd be embarrassed to repeat it also.

I never left.
Have a safe flight.
