@bomb; we pay 2 times the price for cars that you guys do; we do need to pay medical insurance (320bucks for 2 persons per month) College is payed here too.. (2025 bucks per year, excluding books) 19 percent taxes in general..
And our average income isn't that high.. And we need to pay about 40%+ on our income..
But we do have got social insurance; if we can't work, we get money..
