Tax policy really tells you a lot about a government… what politicians’ values and priorities are. People can SAY anything, but in a way, tax policy is putting their money where their mouths are. For example, politicians like to talk about technology, efficiency and transparency. US tax code is so massive, in fact, that the Government Printing Office charges $1,028 just to print a copy of it!

Again, the message they’re sending is quite clear– citizens, even in death, are dairy cows for the government to milk.

Effective January 1st, though, the dividend tax rate in China will drop to a mere 5%.
