I have been hearing about all those crazy salaries of 600K to 1 Million in the trail and just thought of calculating taxes. So if your starting salary is 600K in NYC or CA (which is impossible to earn in academics as a starting salary), you pay 51% in taxes in NYC and slightly higher in CA...Seriously WTF!
No income tax in Florida or the Dakotas!

Regardless of the state you live in, you will end up paying the government in some way. For states who tought not having a state income tax, they will make up for that in other various taxes.
The only possible outcome of these threads is to make neurosurgery look bad either by (1) showing how much those evil greedy doctors make or (2) showing what suckers we are for accepting so little pay for all the sacrifice we make.
Shut.

It doesn't matter where you live. 50% of your income is going to taxes. Whether it is in the form of property taxes, sales taxes, tolls and gas - half of your income is going to the government
