If you compare the West to the USSR, you certainly don't know what you are talking about. Taxation in the East block was really not the problem.

I'm not talking about per se taxation, but the split how much economic value of your work you get in your pocket with a paycheck.
In USSR, 60 percent of economic value of labour was taken by the state. The West went from <20% to over 50% since WW2 and is about exceed that 60% soon.
