30% tax. you should be looking at the stock captial increase. The dividends is just a bonus.

Yes US has a 30% tax on all dividends

Yes there's 30% withholding tax on all dividends. This is deducted before the dividends are credited into your account.

Look into dividend aristocrats and king stocks. These have a record of increasing their dividend payments every year for 25 years or more. Over time, the dividend increases will negate and surpass the withholding tax.
