You think you pay a lot of taxes? Come here in Italy, soon or later they'll tax even the air we breathe. 😅

@GunSmoke9 It's a democratic republic, currently run by a fake-leftwing party. It's not the form of government the problem, anyway, but most people general ignorance (and gullibility) about any politically relevant matter. You want to get elected here? Make sure to appear on TV and scream, attack anyone and everyone (possibly put the blame for everything on foreign countries, say you'll bring back our national currency instead of the Euro, and stuff like that). Besides, we're maybe the only democracy in the world (?) where political parties can [i]merge[/i] *after* the elections.
@check No; mostly because of the problems I stated above. Things will never change in better over herez because there's no efforts to make them change for good.

Good question. I've heard my foreign friends ask that a few times. Our taxes are relatively low, but we get so little in return that they see it as a bad deal. I mean, at least they get healthcare and tuition covered. Factor those in and we probably ARE paying more than other countries do.

A lot of that money has been diverted to black projects.
