I would like to know who these lucky people are, because I pay around 28-30% of my gross every year. And I make nowhere NEAR 200k. They must have a lot of write-offs, or they make shit for wages. My fiance pays between 32-35% of his gross.
Then either you or your accountant doesn't know what you/he is doing.
I'd love to hear your secrets. No, I don't do my own taxes....H&R Block, baby. We're both single, with no dependents. Nothing to really write off. I WILL have a ton of medical bills to write off this April, and for 2012.
Now, to be accurate, this is ALL the taxes that I am paying on a paycheck. But yeah...it's painful. I have to be careful how much overtime I work, because I almost threw myself into a higher tax bracket one year.
We're not talking about the total taxes taken out of your paycheck you idiot.
We're talking about your federal income tax bill as a percentage of your income.
Like I said you don't know anything about taxes so come back after you learn something.
