    Like Villarigosa, the legislature, the Mexicans, Blacks, etc. are going to leave the Democrat reservation...... Santa Barbara, yessssss!! Life is worth living and who cares about the rest of the state, Big Sur, for sure, and lots of other places, you just have to go where being libertarian is workable that's all........

  2. The article says...

    French tax law contains many provisions for exemptions and targeted reductions from taxable income, so that the actual income tax paid is highly individualized. According to a 2002 OECD report, the disposable income of the average production worker was 73.2% of gross pay, and 79% of gross pay for a single-earner married couple with two children.

    Doesn't sound that high to me.

    Anyhow, Monaco and Switzerland are the places to be for extremely low or no taxes at all. Unfortunately, U.S. citizens pays taxes on income without regard to what country you reside in. I believe it's the only country that does that.
