How much tax do you pay?

[Stephen Blair]

I got an Ultra sound on my heart and vitals today and an ECG, a full bill of health, I was seen within 5 mins and was treated like a king and put at ease by 3 VERY professional members of staff from the NHS, my kids go to school and come home smiling with new skills and experiences, all for a few grand tax a year.

Is that in Scotland?

Yes:)

very different here

I needed a scan on my knee and was told 2 months

Asked to go private and got a phone call the next day calling me in the following day

Maybe I'm unlucky with this one

Here in Frenchy-land...

I pay approx 60% of profit in tax and social charges.

I do compensate with cash jobs but it still smarts.

In return, I put myself on the social housing register and within 9 months got offered a new build eco flat in town.

Guess it is all swings and roundabouts...

The heart is considered vital -- the knees less so. Maybe that's the reason?

Pot holed roads. Under achieving schools. NHS going down the pan. Rubbish pensions. I'm off to Finland!

 

Maybe too many people are evading their tax responsibilities?

Evading tax responsibilities is something a working person may do.

 

Freeloading however, is someting a person does if he doesnt work.

 

Two totally different beings IMO:sneaky2:

everytime i see a waster walking down the road drinking skol i think 'i paid for that', the scrubbers in line outside the post office waiting to be handed the money i earned before they go in the pub/bookies and waste it. i don't get mad though, just biding my time till one of them jaywalks in my lane

Aye all our problems start at the freeloaders IMO too. I've not been to the doctors in over ten year so have a biased opinion towards the NHS and they saved my boys life in January:thumbup:
