              There's a trade-off to living in any country. Some have great climate, some have low taxes, some have hot chicks, some have cheap living or a great, politically stable society. No country has everything you could ever wish. Choose the one closest to your heart, the rest you'll learn to deal with.

                                      When I was about 13-14 I travelled to Holland and totally fell in love with the country.
                                      I also liked Austria a lot but for me Holland ruled.I`ve always wanted to go back.

                                      Of course,living right in front of the caribbean I`ve always thought that if I had to leave my country I would have to do it for another tropical one.

Tax Misery Index from Forbes shows different numbers after how much you earn and if you're married or not, but they have something called Overall Tax Burden that we might be able to take a look at.

                                                                          Norway ends up with an average of about 45%.. sweden tops the chart with around 53% while Canada has around 35% and the US has around 29%.. UK clocks in around 37% (this is the total taxes imposed at all levels).

                                                                            Comment

Tax Misery Index from Forbes shows different numbers after how much you earn and if you're married or not, but they have something called Overall Tax Burden that we might be able to take a look at.

I use private doctors, I don't take any sort of welfare and I pay shitload of taxes.

I use private doctors, I don't take any sort of welfare and I pay shitload of taxes.

They make it so easy for the "less fortunate ones" to stay less fortunate. The welfare system is a fucking joke, it's so easy to abuse it's not even a challenge anymore. If you're willing to work a lot and prepared to put in time, skill and effort to get ahead financially, Scandinavian countries are shit for living. Not to mention that the "solidarity preachers", meaning those who never had the brains to do more than work in a factory, will look down on you and treat you like an enemy.
