In the US, it takes a person almost a half a year to earn the money to pay all the taxes we pay.

I agree that there are other forms of tax, but it's nowhere near 80% in total.
We have no sales tax, except for VAT and that's not payable on food.
BTW - you pay £5 to drive in the City of London, not the city of London!
There is a huge difference.
