Thanks, ECSnorway.
That tells me that somebody in my tax bracket in the US is paying roughly two-thirds of what I pay in federal taxes. Granted, some of the additional money I pay goes to fund state-sponsored health care, but not that much of the difference... I'm thinking that you folks still have some room to maneuver with tax hikes before things get tight.
