Hey, I am going to rant regardless. So lets compare those marginal tax rates. I also want to factor in government regulation that makes property expensive, insurance compulsory, the factored costs of lawsuits and medical insurance too. If the hidden half of FICA alone costs an employer more than the total cost of an Indian, and the Indian can live relatively comfortable on such low wages, it speaks volumes for the overhead and costs that are imposed on your average "Producer" in the united States.
