I know. But G66 doesn't offer the kind of sales discounts that Americans get who can order directly from FAS. Nor can we take advantage of the exchange rate of the dollar. We could if we could order directly from FAS as well. Which we can't using credit cards, as it shows we're European. I tried to order once using a US mail address, FAS still cancelled my order. Which is why I joked that if FAS were to allow paypal, G66 would go bankrupt as Europeans would order en masse from FAS directly instead.
You also pay taxes on interest you earned from your bank account. From money you already paid your taxes for. You also pay VAT taxes over fuel duty tax, as the price of your average tank of gas consists of price of gas + fuel duty topped off with VAT. And you pay inheritance taxes over stuff the deceased already paid tax for in the past, be it their own money, or the stuff they bought.
When it comes to collecting money the government doesn't care that you already paid your taxes. If they can come up with more ways to squeeze you they will.
