家园 我在德国,交过税。我也去过瑞士。

去ABB参观的时候,当被问到“苏黎世这里物价这么高,你们ABB的工程师的工资是多少呢”,ABB的老大不愿直接给出他们公司的工资水平,只是回答“我们这里的税率比德国低得多,这是我们吸引德国工程师的手段”。

你拿瑞士的可能出现的最高税率去衡量瑞士的税率是不恰当的。任何严谨的有关税率的文章,都会将瑞士称作TAX HAVEN,而绝不是北欧式的高税收。即便是你引用的文章中,只要你愿意往下多读几行,你就会发现

This tax is levied at federal, cantonal and communal level. Personal income tax is progressive in nature. The total rate does not usually exceed 40% and in most cases, the maximum tax rate is much lower than this. For example, in the Canton of Schwyz, the top rate, inclusive of federal, cantonal/communal tax is approximately 22%.

After a referendum in 2005, Obwalden, a tiny mountainous region in the centre of Switzerland, brought in an income tax law which cut tax for those earning more than CHF300,000 per year to 1% from 2.35%. Individuals earning up to CHF70,000 paid 8% and those with income up to CHF300,000 paid up to 6%. At the same time, Obwalden also cut corporate tax to 6.6%, making it one of the lowest rates in Switzerland.

瑞士的企业税也远比周边欧洲国家低。其他国家的公民如果选择在瑞士居住而不工作,他们要交的税也非常低,这样是许多富豪愿意居住在瑞士和瑞士物价高的一个原因。
