Hello,
I've heard some myths about the US over the years. I'm hoping you guys can clear some of them up for me.
True or false?:
- Alaska
* No income tax in Alaska.
* You can still claim (in certain areas) a piece of land and make it your own. (like in the Klondyke years)
* Every year Alaskans are payed royalties for oil etc that the state earns money on.
- Montana
* There are no speed limits.
- All states
* Everybody can buy and own a gun.
* Everybody can apply to get a permit to carry a concealed gun.
* Cars cost next to nothing.
* When you own a plot of land, you REALLY own it. (instead of the quasi-communism stuff we have in Europe)
* When an American citizen moves to another country to work, he/she will STILL have to pay taxes to America. (are they exempt from paying in the country they work in, then?)
Enlighten me, please.
Thanks.
