If you've started to wonder what the real costs of socialism are going to be, once the full program in these United States hits your wallet, take a look at the table.  As you digest these mind-boggling figures, keep in mind that in spite of these astronomical tax rates, these countries are still not financing their social welfare programs exclusively from tax revenues!  They are deeply mired in public debt of gargantuan proportions.  Greece has reached the point where its debt is so huge it is in imminent danger of defaulting.  That is the reason the European economic community has intervened to bail them out.  If youre following the financial news, you know Spain and Portugal are right behind Greece.

The United States is now heading right down the same path.  The VAT tax in the table is the national sales tax that Europeans pay.  Stay tuned because that is exactly what you can expect to see the administration proposing after the fall elections.  The initial percentage in the United States isn’t going o be anywhere near the outrageous numbers you now see in Europe .

Guess what, the current outrageous numbers in Europe didn’t start out as outrageous either.&nbs ; They started out as miniscule right around the 1% or 2% where they will start out in the United States .  Magically however, they ran up over the years to where they are now.  Expect the same thing here. 


It is the notion that with hard work and perseverance, anybody can get ahead economically here.  Do you think that can ever happen with tax rates between 60% and 80%?  Think again.  With the government taking that percentage of your money, your life will be exactly like life in Europe .  You will never be able to buy a home.  You will never buy a car.  You will never send your children to college.  Lets not shuffle the battle cry of the socialists under the rug either.  Its always the same cry.  Equalize income.  Spread the wealth to the poor (whoever they are).  Level the economic playing field.  Accomplish that and everything will be rosy.


Its time to take a really hard look at reality.  Greece is a perfect
example.  Despite the socialism system that has ruled this country for
decades, with a 65% tax rate, they are drowning in public debt, would have defaulted without hundreds of billions in bailout money, and still. .. 20% of their population lives in poverty.  What has all that socialism money bought, besides ultimate power for the politicians running the show?  Do you think these people are "free"?  They're not.  They are slaves to their economic "system."

This is where we are going unless we throw the present Congress and Obama out.

Instead of spreading the wealth around, spread this around. It might wake some people up.
