Working For Uncle Sam.
The day when Americans will have earned enough income to pay their total tax bill for the year is named "Tax Freedom Day."
This years' Tax Freedom Day was April 26, 116 days into the year -- three days after it occurred in 2005.
Each state's tax burden is unique thus each state's Tax Freedom Day is different. Where does Alabama rank among the states in this survey: Numero 50. Our working for the government ends after 101 days. The fluctuations of Tax Freedom Day can be seen here.
