Not quite correct. Every municipality in Zürich has its own tax ratio, but for sake of your example, lets assume it is the municipality of Zürich.
Church tax is not compulsory - you can declare you have no faith & you will not be charged this tax.
These calcs change depending on if you own assets, property, live with codependents, earn income or have assets in other countries, age, sex & nationality.
Its nice to think these are 1:1 comparisons, but they arent.
My $140K income in Zürich as a single man saw a total of 16% of total deductions.
In Fribourg it was 24%.

Pension contributions are not taxes and you have not mentioned that Swiss can deduct a lot of expenses, such as travel (train or car), food (lunches eaten out if you live too far from your home to return at noon, dependents, and pension payments are also deductible. Each canton and commune has a different rate as well, but in general you could expect taxes to be 15- 25 % depending on those deductions. If you own a home, you can also deduct the interest payment on your loan and renovations as well.

Time off is 6 weeks paid leave, and the community is fine as long as you are not an a**hat.

Plus, they aren't going to turn a blind eye to groups like the Ku Klux Klan or something. All those taxes are put to good use.

​@@kathydavies4589 true, it is very competitive especially for young swiss people. You won't starve but you can't own anything and people are very vulnerable financially. Most people can't own a flat or even a car, but they work in average 42 hours a week. You have to rent everything and it can be taken from you at any given moment. I lost multiple friends from s*icide. They had to install nets/barriers on bridges in my city because people wouldn't stop jumping.

Hahaha. Stop believe lies. 'happy' hahahaha.

La Suisse🇨🇭 est une confédération bananière, oligarchie. (Droit d'urgence...)
La Suisse est une illusion, un mirage :
-La Suisse a été condamné plusieurs fois récemment par la CEDH (Cour Européenne des Droits de l'Homme).
-Taxes pour les chiens, taxes poubelles, serafe (TV), prix du coiffeur, téléphonie, contrôle des habitants, assurances, crèche CHF 3000/mois, SBB CFF (trains), parkings, cinéma à CHF 20 de base la place...
-Plusieurs hôtels 5 étoiles de ville sans spa.
-Matière fécale dans la baie de Montreux.
Algues, puces de canard, cyanobactéries mortelles pour l'Homme. Chiens morts Neuchâtel.
-plein d'allophones en Suisse. Qui ne parlent aucune langue nationale.
-Fin de la neutralité. Entrée à l'ONU.
-Fin du secret bancaire.
-Pas de code du travail mais un code des obligations déboulonné.
-Les Suisses transforment parfois des licenciements (même abusifs) en démission pour éviter de payer le chômage malgré les cotisations.
C'est du vol. Les Suisses appellent ça le chômage auto-infligé.
-Beaucoup de jugements à huis clos comme en Corée du Nord. Sans avocat aussi.
-J'ai fait condamner plusieurs juges pour viol du droit à l'écoute.
-Gros problèmes de drogues dans le canton de Vaud. Rixes mortelles au Flon. Dealers Lausanne, Vevey.
-Attentat à Morges.
-Beaucoup de travaux. gares, routes, autoroutes. Embouteillages monstres.
-Scandale trains trou de tolochenaz.
-Scandale construction autoroute entre Brig et Sierre. Plusieurs milliards sur plus de 30ans. Corruption. Fausses factures.
-Chez Nespresso, saisi record de cocaïne en 2022.
-Nestlé a fait travailler des enfants en Côte d'ivoire.
-Moins en moins de neige. Les glaciers fondent vitesse grand V.
-Scandales UBS et Crédit Suisse en milliards.
-La BNS (Banque Nationale Suisse) a perdu en 2022, 132 milliards de CHF. C'est abyssale.
-Banque Suisse Reyl condamnée.
-L'argent du Liban 🇱🇧 planqué entre 300 et 500 millions de $.
-L'argent du Cameroun 🇨🇲 dilapidé par Paul Biya depuis 40ans à Genève.
-L'argent de l'Afghanistan 🇦🇫(CHF 3.2 milliards) gardé à Bâle. Pendant que le peuple meurt de faim, sans chauffage.
-Discrimination anti Français (Lire Marie Maurisse, journaliste Le Monde, livre : Bienvenue au Paradis.)
-La fondue Gerber n'a plus le droit d'utiliser le drapeau Suisse sur ses emballages car les ingrédients viennent de l'étranger. Toblerone aussi.
-Salon de l'auto Genève encore annulé. 4 fois à la suite.
-Routes pas toujours salées.
-arnaque twint.
-arnaque bois de chauffage.
-Le cash interdit dans des marchés de Noël.
-700 000 habitants sans eau potable sur environ 8.5 millions d'habs.
-Pollution : Dioxines dans les sols Lausannois. Adieu les potagers.
-UBS condamnée en décembre 2021. 1.8 milliard d'€. Démarchage bancaire illégal. Blanchiments.

​@@kathydavies4589its 4th in the world if ur talking about ranking

@EddieJazzFan

Is this supposed to be a pro or con Switzerland? In the US, the taxes would be slightly more (about 65K). And the Swiss have less crime and roads without pot-holes every 10 feet.

@homeyg7543

Better services and tax rate than America

@steelisthemeal

Gasoline prices are really high because of huge taxes
& everything has a value added tax as well
So in the end ya taxes will be higher in that country

@that1niceguy246

​@@steelisthemeal Better wages though, as well as a much better public transport system, especially in regards to trains.

@steelisthemeal

@@that1niceguy246 in USA you could build the best public transport system ever
& it would be extremely dangerous to ride because of so many criminals riding to take advantage of the traveling public
Public transport ya don’t own it & its not necessarily going where you are going
Yeah good for the workers going to the city center
👍

And the taxes are lower/non existent for people with lower salaries. The rich pay for the poor in a sense.

lower, but in no way non existant. it's still a big chumk even on modest incomes

@@sagittariusa9012 If you need already to be very thrifty anyway, yes 10% is a big chunk. and rhen, there's health insurance, not formally taxes but in fact, it is one. which easily adds another 10% - 20%.

In Canada they would take 75k from 200k and leave us with one of the worst health care in the Western World, increasing crime and a housing and grocery crisis

@alanmoore2197

Pension Fund Contributions certainly are not taxes, Insurance may not be either depending on circumstances. In the US you have Federal & State Taxes, Property Taxes (on Homes & Autos), Social Security (like pension case above), Medical Insurance Costs and also out of pocket (medical/dental/vision) - since Switzerland provides this) to be fair you'd compare the cost of equivalent accident insurance and unemployment insurance too. You have to compare apples to apples on costs & benefits. Most Swiss get paid well relative to similar jobs in other countries too.

@peterwinkler4934

Not sure about these calculations, and I lived in and paid taxes in Switzerland for a couple of years. The Church tax is optional, not mandatory. Overall effective tax rate in Switzerland is about 17-20%, not counting the pension fund contributions (as they are not a tax but rather deferred compensation) and OASDI. Generally, if you are making 200K USD or Swiss Francs or above per annum, the overall tax hit in Switzerland is going to be lower than if you are living in a high income tax state in the US.

@jamesshoemaker684

Approximately the same percentage iPay and they have far better social programs
