F-ing Taxes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So my sister sends me a package…right?  Toys for Bens Birthday and some of his favorite foods.  After going through customs it is supposedly delivered.  Right.  We chased it down today and it has to wait another 48 hours for another inspection.   When it is finally ready… we can pick it up and pay $240. Reais. 
Living is good but the details of day to day business are so frustrating.  Taxes here are so high.  Someone in my class said that it is like 60%.  I am still in shock… this   means we will have to have 2 paydays before we can get our box.  If I only would have known…Like I said Dancing on Glass.
