Quote from Ricter:
I already did. They left out Alberta, which lowers the average still more, particularly since Texas is in. I do business in both, thanks.
Quote from Trader666:
Oh please... you said the chart "shows Canada with a lower tax burden than the US" when in fact it shows that NYC has a higher tax burden than Ontario. The chart also shows that Illinois has a LOWER tax burden than Ontario, as does Texas... and the US as a whole is over 20 points LOWER than Ontario. Who gives a shit about your anecdotal BS when you can't even read a simple chart?
Quote from Ricter:
And who gives a shit about your provincial viewpoint?
Quote from Trader666:
You said the chart "shows Canada with a lower tax burden than the US" when in reality IT SHOWS NO SUCH THING.
So it's not my "provincial viewpoint," I'm just accurately stating what the chart says... which you're too stupid and infantile to do.
You're stating YOUR "provincial viewpoint."

Quote from Ricter:
Yeah, the chart left out Alberta, which would bring the average for Canada down. In that sense, and combined with actually living in both countries, the chart is incomplete and flawed. Since your viewpoint is based only on that chart, your view is both flawed and provincial.
Charts aside, the reality is, for one providing actual goods or services of value in both countries (as opposed to merely trading symbols of that activity), the tax burden in both countries is "sweet fuck all" as they say. The more I make, the more taxes I pay, but the more taxes I pay, the more money seems to be in my accounts.
If you were making money, you'd understand.
