A bit late, but while I was working oil rigs here in Canada my income tax from federal and provincial deductions worked out to 31%. Plus I had CPP and EI deductions too so i was paying 31-33% of my income to their black hole of waste. Maybe Americans get a lower rate, would have to get an American oil rig worker to weigh in on how much he got robbed off his cheques.
