Why Does Google Take Taxes?

No offense, but if my real job took $30 for every $100 (30%) I earned then I would just quit and live on welfare.

I have found no information on google's website as to why they feel they need to take taxes out of payments to sole proprietors *its a businesses responsiblity to pay their taxes*

Google should just be sending the money and letting end users report and pay for the taxes.

 

Google doesn't want the extra paperwork and expense of deducting and handling your taxes. I'm sure they only do it because the IRS says they must.

 

I thought google will not do publishers adsense tax? Can someone confirm that google does your adsense taxes for you?

 

I don't think they take adsense taxes..

Yes Thank you

 

i realized that im an idiot and checked a box saying i was supposed to have IRS witholdings taken out.

I thought it was an agreement to something box so I clicked it.

 

What country do you live in ?
I would be happy if I only had to pay 30% taxes on my income !

 

you pay more than 30%????? I live in Texas which takes no state income taxes. adn the fed only takes about 8.8%

 

Over here, people pay as much as 45% on taxes, so we are very happy if we get $55 / 100!

 

i don't know where the heck here is but i think its time you started rioting...

 

form an LLC and get a EIN and they won't take any taxes from you.

 

Yeah but in Britain we get free health care.
Just watch the Michael Moor documentary Sicko you will get the picture.

But 45% is a bit high + 17.5% VAT. It adds up.

 

Income tax is terrible. Thats why you folks need to vote Ron Paul in the republican primaries. He's all for smaller government. Lookup some of his videos if you're interested.
