Oh oh, I think someone is looking at what countries to claim asylum in.![]()
Taxes are high, starting at 17% and hitting about 40%.
But you need to balance it up with minimum wage is about $15 or $16 an hour; no tips. Our median income for Australia is about $53K at the moment.
Cost of living is high; our housing market did not burst and has pretty much maintained itself. I understand that Australia is one of the most expensive places to buy a house these days and if I were in the market now, I wouldn't be able to afford it at all!
I believe that there is an extradition treaty between Australia and the US.![]()
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
Ecuador might be better. I'm pretty sure that there isn't an extradition treaty between the US and Ecuador.
Actually that's a lie, I will be back in a couple of days.
Check in later all.

Ecuador is the place to go according to a couple of co-workers planning on retiring there and living like kings.![]()
