And? The American taxes added with the costs of insurance, prescriptions, hospital bills etc greatly outsize the "cost" of Scotlands tax - which already includes all of the above
And?
Not sure what your point is. Scotland pays more in tax, but gets the same services Americans do for cheaper than Americans pay out in tax plus medical expenses in your statement?
I said we pay less in tax according to the approximated brackets I posted. Those brackets were from a 2023 tax site. Not sure what you’re trying to argue.
I read your edit and yes, you did kinda come off as being "USA! USA!, fuck taxes!". Anyway, I guess we agree
Fair enough.
