Hi,
For what it's worth, according to this official source from our government itself (sorry, only available in German I'm afraid), the tax income for Germany in 2007 was 538.2 billion Euros (approx. 700 billion US$ at the moment).
According to this official source, total revenue (taxes + everything else) in 2007 was 1026.8 billion Euros (~1350 billion US$).

Quote:Got a link? Every number I've seen for German government revenue has been in at least the ballpark of 480 billion Euros, which, depending on the exchange rate, is somewhere between 600 and 800 billion US.
If Wikipedia is to be believed on the issue, even my numbers are low: revenue was 1.277 trillion US in 2006.
