You see I think its kind of counter productive. Its like paying a plumber to do a job but taking money bak off him to use your water! Why not just do a slight drop in pay and eliminate tax for service people?

thats why there's income tax.And it may be fair or whatnot,but think of how much money the goverment would lose.

no thats what I mean, why tax service people? it really is pointless, the government are paying the army to do a job, but taking away 22% of it straight away... i mean whats the point?

yeah but the whole proces is a waste of time... why not just drop their pay 22% in the first place?!
