In France? How when the top tax rate is 45%?



That's only income tax. There's also social contributions including pension, health insurance, and unemployment insurance. This adds up to around an extra 20% tax (although pension contributions are capped so could be less for very high salaries).


Also, VAT


Income tax isn't the only tax people pay
