more than you want to think about.\njust call the IRS, they'll be glad to inform you. Of course, the IRS advice is wrong 1/3 of the time.

No. We're all slaving for 20 bucks an hour after 10 bucks of the 30 bucks go toward taxes, for every 48 hours each week year after year.

Er......I think if you were starting a business where you expected to pay 40% income tax on top of corporation tax, you would know the answer to this?\n\nAnd the odd thing is, usually people who put on daft questions like this try to make them vaguely funny..................\n\nSorry - maybe I'm just not in the mood.

Yes...and it is pretty complex to do so.  You need a competent accountant, or you will either end up in trouble or end up paying too much.

Maybe it SEEMS so, but you probably don't spend more than 1/3rd of your income on taxes.  Sales taxes are only 5 or 6%; and you get tax deductions for mortgage interest, etc.  The USA has one of the lowest overall tax rates of any modernized country, especially compared to Europe.

I think that aswell as the above comments, it also depends on taxes. Take here for example (UK) our government taxes us on everything!

The only legal fees you can deduct from your taxes are fees pertaining to taxes and legal fees for your business if you have one. So the answer is no.

I pay $7600 a year in taxes for 60x100 lot. That's the world of Long Island, NY. About 75% of that goes to the local school district. Yes I have no children. And I've lived in the same house for 34 years. There's got to be a better way. Folks are screwing me to financial ruining.

well let's see, you got your federal taxes, then you got your provincial taxes, on top of that you have yer surtaxes, capital gains taxes, goods and services taxes, provincial sales tax, etc.\n\nOn the whole we're taxed just dang way too much.\n\nIf you're really serious and want to know, here's Revenue Canada's website.  Current Individual tax package is online.

Well, make certain you check this with your tax professional because mine has always said this is only for specific types of items such as an automobile.\n\nIt was certainly not my intention to insult anyone, I thought I was making a light joke. I apologize if I hurt your feelings.\n\nBut I do know in the past that we had asked about deducting sales taxes at H & R and were told that this had very strict limitations. She could have been wrong because they use a lot of temp help around tax time. Conversely, there is a person who asked a question because they now owe an additional $4400.00 to the IRS because of mistakes.\n\nThat really was all I meant.
