except when we get an adhesive bandage applied in hospital it doesnt come with a huge billright down to the colour of the adhesive bandages applied in hospital.
A $336 Band-Aid for a cut finger?
From $629 Band Aids to $5,571 charges for just sitting in a waiting room
I know that the below compares income taxes only and there are many more taxes
The lowest rate (10%) applies to anyone earning between $0 and $9,875
In the UK earnings below £12,570 are zero rated for tax
In the US $9,876 – $40,125 is taxed at 12%
In the UK £12570 - £37,700 is taxed at 22%
So lets say an American earns $40 000
he pays $9875 x 10% = $987 + $3629 = $4616 in tax
lets say that a Brit earns £37700
he pays £24950 x 20% = £5026 in tax
not so very different
