Yep and in the grand of schemes... how much taxes is enough we should be paying? That's why when I look at an investment, I need to understand how much tax the corporation pays, how much tax the managed fund pays, how much tax the client pays and their income tax they pay. Then you go on to the consumption side like GST, rates, wow too many to list.... Is there a point where taxes are too high already? As I told my wife this morning, there needs to be another level of tax on the ultra high income earners - those around $70K / year income pay the same level of tax on an extra $1 earned than those CEOs earning $500K to $5M a year !!
