Medicare Part B
$100 doctor bill
$20 patient co-pay
$20 covered by Part B premiums
$60 paid via taxation
doctor pays ~40% marginal 1040 rate
staffers pay ~27% marginal rate
~$33 paid via doctor office earned income taxation
~$27 paid by outside party taxation, including that of corporations
8% all other. Roads, bridges, what not. For all that is spent it is a drop in the bucket compared to everything else and we see the result.
I'd like to see these figures combined for local, state and federal. We should be mortified.
