“The welfare state requires high taxes. Since the late 1960s, Sweden has had the highest tax quota (as percentage of GDP) in the industrialized world, but today the difference is only a couple of percentage points of GDP above that of other high-tax countries such as France, Belgium and Denmark.” -wikipedia

So basically people who work, make money, and spend it pay the highest taxes in the world so it can be taken by the state and given to people who have less (ie don’t go out and work hard to earn a living)? Sign me up for that too!!! :kekegay:
