highest taxes in the world
Trump, while lamenting the condition of the middle class, said the U.S. has the highest tax rate anywhere in the world.. All sets of data we examined for individual and family taxes prove him wrong. Statutory income tax rates in the U.S. fall around the end of the upper quarter of nations.
The marginal tax rate is the rate paid on the taxable income, in the highest tax bracket. One of the worldâs highest tax rates, and the highest of Western European countries, has been imposed on the citizens of Belgium. On average, Belgium taxpayers are taxed a marginal rate of 54.9%.
