“The flat tax rate of 13% was introduced in Russia in 2001 at the beginning of Putin’s first term. From 2021, a rate of 15% was introduced for Russians with income exceeding 5 million roubles.”

The “new” tax would affect top 3.6% to a flat 18%.

Sounds pretty damn good to me paying about 65% of my yearly income to fed, state, local, gas, sales, etc.

Yeah, absolutely. BTW, this is the third post on this topic by this poster. The first one said that Putin had raised the tax on the rich, the 2nd post said that Putin might raise the tax on the rich, and now this the 3rd & latest post., and acts lie it's a big deal. But never compares the tax of US vs Russia. Instead we are supposed to be triggered. Like we should care about something that has zero impact upon a US citizen.

Thanks for the information.🙂👍 I won't even bother to confirm it, because I am not in the least triggered by the information in any of the 3 posts on this topic by this poster, nor do I take it as a sign of desperation on Russia's part even.
