Tax-payers' commemoration day 2008

Three day ago, on July 8, German tax payers could celebrate this year's commemoration day, i.e. from that day on they work for their own pocket and not for the government and social security.

Last year, this remarkable day was July 13, so there has been some improvement (of course, this depends on whom you ask). Nevertheless, it is astonishing that you have to work more than 6 months before you can reap and keep the benefits.
