Status 2012, numbers by Eurostat.

First income tax in Europe wa sduring the Napoleonic wars, in England, ranging from 5 to 10%. Later income tax schemes until short of WWI throughout Europe had an average value 8%.

After WWI and with the installation of republican order, income taxation constantly climbed until the levels of modern times. Together with other mandatory tax payments and obligatory payments, the average regular employee today must hand over more than half of his income. In some states, the income tax alone already makes up for one half.

Feel your freedom! You are a citizen.

The smiles will freeze on people's faces sooner or later. You cannot outrun reality forever. Sooner or later it catches up with you again, like a weight on a rubber band that returns towards you - with growing acceleration when the rubberband contracts. Slams right into our faces. the financial system and state order we have today, is the biggest, longest and most successful profitable raid in known human history.
