Top rate of tax is 40% on all your earnings over 30k something.... Up to the 30k it's taxed at around the 20 mark I think... Everyone has a tax free amount of about 4-5k or so.
Yes... it's seems like a lot, but of course we get free healthcare... and a social system if we suddenly fall down on hard times or are sick.
But yes... lots of people abuse the system. I know guys that have never ever worked so yes, it's open to abuse.
