Checking In/Checking Out Version 1.0

just saw a news piece on why we pay 15-30 % more for the same products/food up here...

they're going to expose and try to shame the large distributors who sell based on 'Country pricing'....there really is no reason a computer costs 800 down there and 1200 up here...

not sure if it will work

We manufacture meds here and can order them from Canada for far less then they charge in the US

you really don't want to get into a cost of living war with me....

your food, furniture, cars, electronics, clothing...hell your everything, costs an average of 20% less than it does up here. If you don't believe that.....look at dual websites for products...Amazon Canada vs US etc....

It's offensive

fuck me

I have some mutual funds I want to redeem.....if you take out 5000, government takes 10% off the top....5000-15000, they take 20%...15000 and over they take 30%

well that just royally fucked my finances for the next few months......if I want 20000 of my own money I pay 30% (6000) to the government and 5% to the mutual fund for the sale


I'm done

I'm assuming it's withholding tax? The same thing happens here in the States, although they give you the option to have the money withheld instead of doing it for you and you can choose what percent (if any) you want to have withheld. The bad part is, if you don't have any money withheld in taxes, then when tax time rolls around at the end of the year, you have to declare that money you cashed in as income and the taxes will all be due on it when you file, in addition to your regular income taxes.

That free health care ain't so free, my friend.

But seriously... Tax man is a dick.

I am pulling retirement funds and keeping 65% after taxes. And these weren't even my investment. Company funds only. In effect I am paying the taxes the corporation avoided.

Off to the salt mines. Have a good day.
