ONLY AN 8%?!?!?!? here we have 19% for sales tax, and an even greater for vehicle taxes (don't remember the exact number)

8% is pretty common in the U.S.; the highest I've seen it here is 10-11% in liberal urban areas (NYC, Seattle, Portland...)

Complaining about 8%?
The European Union in large and Scandinavia in particular laughs.
