Taxes in the USA are at an all time low apparently - around 9%. Compare that to most European countries where it's 35-45%.

You might think the USA just isn't taking reducing their deficit seriously.

I'm not just referring to sales tax but all taxes overall in general! But the U.S.A. is OBVIOUSLY not worried about paying off the national debt lol.
 
not rude? give me a break

Some of you are really saying that the Steve's response wasn't rude?
So you're saying that people have to be either tax-experts on current world economy OR you're considered not-educated and shouldn't ask questions? Don't be ridiculous.

It's like some of you 'acts' like Steve Job's groupie.. Oh wait.
