Frankly, I don't care about taxes - the boss takes what he needs and that doesn't bother me at all. If I need more, I ask or go out and scam.
Sure, I'd like to be Extremely Rich, but if I work my ass off that WILL happen. |

Personally I feel the level of taxes at the present time are very generous. Obviously the level of taxes differ from city to city and crew to crew based on their own financial situation, and these figures go to prove that, but really I doubt anybody could complain that much. Honestly if you're working your arse off you'll be making more than enough money for you and your boss to get fat on!
And if someone out there is the type of person that complains over this.. well maybe you're not cut out for this way of life. |

I honestly do not mind the taxes set by my city and i believe they are nobodies business but my families. I did not ask families what their taxes were before i joined and i was lucky enough to have multiple options to join. I joined a family coz i sat down talking to multiple sponsors, crewleaders, godfathers and hands and felt i talked about the issues the game is facing at present even if i was blunt in some cases.
The truth of tax for me is it is essential to maintain the family and city and develop it, in the present harsh times we face which can be seen as a time of opportunity or a time to plan to reshape this world further sculpting the proverbial clay into something new so not to repeat the mistakes of old. I honestly dont mind being taxed or the level but i would hope wherever i lay my hat down the line it is going into protecting the most important people in the city and their members. |

Again id just like to echo the sentiments of my fellow man and women. No matter of what ever the % of a tax be, either way the money I make, whether it be through voluntary donations or I'm taxed out my ass, I kick it up to my Crew Leader. This will always be the way hierarchy works. |

Never really though about the taxes, Allways new that there is some kind of kickback to the leaders which is expected would have liked to see them compared with the pre war taxes though would be interesting. |

Now, you bring up a matter which is close to my heart, and on which I would humbly submit my opinion to our leaders as a suggestion for improvement. My opinion on taxes can be summed up in three words: Nine, nine, nine! That is the optimum tax rate that should be charged. I have consulted with all sorts of experts that have examined the tax code and can attest to this optimality. |

A wiser man than me once said death and taxes are the only constants in life. The way i look at is if we were all doing an honest days work the governments would be taking as much if not more from us in taxes. I have no issue with the boss skimming off the top of my earnings. In fact i encourage him to do it. That way i don't have to find other ways to erm satisfy him. |

I would just like to say Chewits if taxes is the only way you satisfy your boss your clearly not in PizzaTheHut's crew. Now Omerta keeps me from telling everyone (including the police) what he does to me, I mean what happens behind closed doors... but lets just say money isn't the only thing PizzaTheHut likes to get his hands on.
But back to money, yes taxes today are very fair. I have been in some crew's with insanely high taxes and some with no taxes. I think leaders realize that if people are not getting taxed as much they will be able to give more in tribute. Obviously if your being taxed up the wazoo your not gonna have as much money at the end of the day to kick up. All in all I feel that with lowish taxes the boss can still scrap the bit off the top that he deserves, and be able to hold his hand out at the end of the day for tribute. |
