I'm from Europe and hear mixed stories about income taxes in the US. Is it true that middle class in NY can easily pay 50% on income which seems alot, and is that a combination of federal and state income taxes.
Where is income the lowest and where the highest?
Can you give examples of how income taxes break down and add up where you live and in big places like NY or LA as i suppose the 50% is not all federal taxes, right?
Note: please also mention what you consider "income tax" like just work or also income from stocks etc.. and are the rates the same on those then for work? Thanks.
