why is it that in europe the monthly fee has not been scaled acordingly with the global exchange rate.
based on euro to us dollar, the us are paying 9.6 euros a month but europeans are paying 14.99, for exactly the same service.
please explain...
Tax, your scum like politicans are fleecing you. They use the money so they can pay themselves for coming up with new ways to rip off the population they are supposed to serve. Why are you complaining here?
Do something and start a fricken revolution rather than whining on these boards. In the mean time have some cheese with that.

Brackley boy... I'm English... and we pay one of the highest tax levels in Europe. That is direct and indirect taxes. One Indirect being feul tax - our "gas" for our American friends in over $6 a gallon.
Its gonna hurt us too soon as our economy is sliding down the crapper. I can be more technical... but it hurts most peoples heads and derals the thread... Either way I wouldn't be smug towards the "yanks" when the bank of England is so locked into anti inflation messures by the govenment we now have the fastest collapsing economy in the world. Britian is built on a service economy, and that is going to hurt a lot in a world reccession which we are busy spiriling into.
But back to taxes... One of those EU taxes is VAT charged on games. And what does the apathetic EU population do? Whine at CCP. A company trying to compete on an international arena. The EU set up to encourage free trade...

Sorry mate, not directed at you... was identifying and saying roughly what petrol gases prices were... other comments about "smugness" were directed elsewhere. Was actually agreeing with you

In the UK, if you are on a very good income, you MAY reach 50% in direct and indirect taxes.
Yes that's what Govenment likes to tell you.
Direct and indirect taxes in the UK if you earn over 33k a year, drive, smoke and drink, you pay 90% tax. I suggest you actually add up what you are paying - especially come April, when they kick us for even more. No idea what the average family is. But that is what I pay on average.
Direct - National Insurance contributions, and the like.
Indirect - Road tax, VAT, Poll tax (community charge), fuel charges (that's heating your home driving your car etc)
Pack of 20 cigarettes in the UK is now about $13USD
Seriously... Kerfira do the maths. It is truely scary...

I agree with this. Just because the americans have*****ed up their currency, why should we pay allmost twice what they do? It is not exactly fair in my opinion.
agreed
Just what the politician order. People too thick to understand just how much damage their policies have done... but smart enough to find the polling station....
