Imagine a country founded by people who revolted against taxes morphing into a country with a bunch of morons happy to have half their money taken away and 90% of that money being wasted on non essential crap.

Given the choice...give me the rate they were paying, and I will surrender my vote. <10 with no representation is better than >50 with representation.

Wow, who's taxation rate is >50?

Germany, Israel, Sweden, and Norway if you count the total tax burden.

If you restrict yourself to income, the top US rate is 35%.
In California, you get to 9.3% after only $43,000. Then it becomes 10.3% at one million making 45.3% total. New York City is a little higher still.

Anyways, a cap-and-trade system is a close second in theory, although I don't think it would be managed well in real life.

Several of the authors of Kyoto are in shock at how badly it's being abused.
