Dunno what you Americans make all that fuss about.
Our Tax Freedom Day in Germany is today... {crazy}

Ours will soon be Christmas.

And let's get one thing straight. There's a big difference between a pilot and an aviator. One is a technician; the other is an artist in love with flight. — E. B. Jeppesen

Why, do you think Obama will cancel all taxes and even pay you for 7 additional days? :))

No, that is only for those that can verify they voted for him, we get their burden too... :))

Apparently ours was 19th April.

Don't know if that includes AHV (Social Security), IV (Invalid insurance) and Obligo (Compulsory health insurance)

Of course we pay our taxes at the end of October in a big lump. No matter when Tax Freedom Day is, that still hurts. {grumpy}

Hire Engineers to drive the vision and execute a plan. Hire MBAs to shuffle the papers and work in sales. Hire Accountants to manage your staff working a viable livable wage, and never have either an Accountant or an MBA run your company. - Steve Jobs

But I thought you did vote for him. I'd never have guessed from your posts that you were opposed to him. {duck}

June 2nd, according to Wikipedia. At least last year - did your government really increase the taxes so badly?
Okay, I mean, at least we know what they would need the money for, so... :))

He did. All that ranting is just overcompensation for his guilty conscience... :))
