(且以BC 省為例)當你揾$10,000港紙一個月﹐你一年就約繳$25,000為薪俸稅﹐未計其他。如過月薪$30,000﹐一年約繳$87,600。大蓋約20%左右。你就算買支牙刷﹐都包含約14%稅在內。無錯﹐香港在比較下相對來說稅項就輕得多﹐不過既然交了稅﹐自然希望稅款能回餽社會﹐唔係養廢柴。<BR/><BR/>FEDERAL INCOME TAX<BR/>15.25% on the first $36,378 of taxable income, plus 22% on the next $36,378 of taxable income (on the portion of taxable income between $36,378 and $72,756), plus <BR/>26% on the next $45,529 of taxable income (on the portion of taxable income between $72,756 and $118,285), plus 29% of taxable income over $118,285.<BR/><BR/>NOT INCLUDING the Provincial / Territorial tax rates which varies from a minimal of 4% (under $36,378) in nunavut, to 18.02% (above $59,180) in newfoundland.<BR/> ----------------------------<BR/>There's also EXCISE TAX on petroleum products, automobile. also GST/PST (聯幫政府銷售稅/省份銷售稅) applies to all non daily products.道士https://www.blogger.com/profile/10229685544912371330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33595714.post-1170212553403972572007-01-31T11:02:00.000+08:002007-01-31T11:02:00.000+08:00Believe me, one can be miraculously generous at ot...Believe me, one can be miraculously generous at others' expense.倉海君https://www.blogger.com/profile/17212577823407511988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33595714.post-1170209230425649352007-01-31T10:07:00.000+08:002007-01-31T10:07:00.000+08:00With greatest respect, I am very surprised by what...With greatest respect, I am very surprised by what you wrote in your article saying “香港人已不可再慷慨起來?” and “香港愈來愈變得某種人的意識形態作主”. First of all can you please tell me why should I be generous to a groups of immigrants who are reluctant to work and come to Hong Kong cherishing the fantacy that their well-beings will be taken care of? What makes my/our generosity justifable before people who choose to fold their arms up and idle their lives in restaurant or elsewhere and don’t bother to find a job and earn their own living? Situation would be otherwise if they are handicapped or have totally lost their working capacity. I have little idea of how much income tax you have to pay throughout all these years or how benovelant you are but I truly believe anyone with a reasonable mind would agree better public interest could be served by spending their income tax, of which is derived from sweat and toil, on social infrastructure, education etc than feeding those good for nothing men of sloth. Nobody points a gun at their heads and asks them to marry women in mainland as one will not die of being a bachelor. At the time when these gentlemen put their signatures on the marriage certificates, they should anticipate separation with the loved ones is inevitable. Nor does anyone ask them to give birth to offsprings as neither of them are pedigree dogs or horses with prize-winning ancestry. So when it is on their own initiative to have children, they are not obliged to rely on you or me to pay their expenses out of our tax money. Even if you think Hong Kong is a place with abundant wealth, they are not entitled to look upon us for endless financial support. If they are orphans or widows with several children who have no means to earn their bread and butter, social welfare support of course should never be withheld as a miser would do in a situation as such. But for those who deliberately choose not to work and expecting bread be gifted by some merciful hearts, then Hong Kong definitely is and should not portray itself as their wonderland where milk and honey is flowing everywhere. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps you may think I am just another victim of individualism or class consciousness, but honestly I am only an advocate of fairness. Right/welfare should only be rendered if there is an obligation borne on a person. In the West, the working population is heavily taxed, they therefore entirely deserve all the social welfare available for them and their family. But for those who only take but never give, they are no better than locusts and deserve nothing but pesticides. <BR/><BR/>In relation to the inflows of mainland preguant women, the problem could only be cubbed by amending the legislation of Hong Kong. Has our immigration law been amended to the effect that only babies with Hong Kong citizens parenthood, could obtain the right of abode in Hong Kong, I daresay the number of mainland pregnaunt ladies coming to Hong Kong would drop in a forenight. Hong Kong is never, nor will be a神話. Hong Kong is only a place where there are opportunities for those who would bother to give a try. <BR/><BR/>Personally I wish to give an applause to the Indians and Napelese who support their families by working as a security guard at a building or workman on the construction site. <BR/><BR/>Lastly, I think it is utterly unfair to compare the present immigrants which Hong Kong is trying to close the gate to with those immigrants in the late 1940s, 50s and 60s. Those came in the 50s and 60s were either skilled or had brought along with them capital. Hong Kong’s today success should largely be attributed to their labour and investment, without which a barren rock could never turn into an international metropolis.左冷禪https://www.blogger.com/profile/01262379866987885070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33595714.post-1170208746359043172007-01-31T09:59:00.000+08:002007-01-31T09:59:00.000+08:00網誌管理員已經移除這則留言。左冷禪https://www.blogger.com/profile/01262379866987885070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33595714.post-1170151305648443212007-01-30T18:01:00.000+08:002007-01-30T18:01:00.000+08:00沒有安全感的人們,就會不斷尋找與自己身份不同之別人為假想對敵去排斥和抗衡(毛稱之為敵我矛盾),以否定...沒有安全感的人們,就會不斷尋找與自己身份不同之別人為假想對敵去排斥和抗衡(毛稱之為敵我矛盾),以否定他人與自身之差異為其自保之道。然而,因著眾人之間本來就是不能盡相同的,這樣尋找假想對敵的過程就可是無了期,從而跌進倍感失去安全感的惡行循環,無止境地活在自作的恐懼中。Zekehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18430428468671388634noreply@blogger.com
