Sauce for the video is in the following text:
Germans don't even realize how many taxes they have. They just see the employer's payslip, because they are all wagies. But the company pays way more. A normal German wagie costs between 100 and 200k, for a net wage of 30 to 70k.
Lots of taxes that aren't named as taxes:
- The work the employer has to do to adapt laws, all that bureaucracy, fees, insurances like U1 and U3 et cetera. You have to do that as well.
- You pay your tax advisor.
- You work weekends to read the newest unhinged laws, that's thousands per year alone.
- Inflation is a major tax on wagies, almost 50% since 2020, per Euro M3.
- Last but not least the Enev and its repercussions. Sauce of the vid is Nathaliedistraction. You could have had world leading robotics, but you had to spend all those billions on ancient glorified AC and styrofoam instead, and that loss in wealth is a tax, effectively.
- The time you spend searching for cheaper products, smaller flats, and wrangling these shitty products and life circumstances, that's a tax.
- Because you pay so many taxes, you can't afford a house, despite your employer paying one of the highest prices for a wagie in international competition. So the rent for the flat is a form of tax, in particular because the regulation is so tight, the landlord is basically a bureaucrat.
- If you ever inherit a house, you can not move, because the taxes on moving are so high. Call it the freedom of movement tax.
- If you want to leave the country, you get Wegzugsteuer. No one knows about this. For example, an entrepreneur pays more than 10x his yearly profit as a tax. That's more than a million to leave the country, for a little tradie shop that barely keeps you alive.
- The cost of diseases from living a cheap restricted life, that is also a tax, very expensive and irreversible, too.
