By the way, if you think you pay taxes in the USA, you don't know the tax hell in Europe.

In practically all countries you pay more than 20% to buy anything, plus another 20% that they take from your salary. If you have a high salary, more than 100k euros the state already takes more than 50% of your salary. Add to this taxes on everything.

As a general rule, European states collect more than 50% of their GDP in taxes.

These are the consequences of not having guns.

This checks out with some of the research I've been doing. Here are a few sources for any doubters out there:

https://taxfoundation.org/top-personal-income-tax-rates-europe-2022/

The wiki page lists both top and bottom rates (most income taxes are progessive) *and* lists the VAT. Belgium's highest rate is 79.5% right now.

Following you, and sent a zap.
