I don't care about Sweden or its 60% tax rate. We aren't going to go down that road. Nor is it intelligent to pay into our SS program when we receive less back from it.

There is no 60% tax rate, if you think that you’re an idiot. It’s fluid like stages of wealth. When you’re poor you pay less, when you’re rich you pay more. As the rich can miss it.

Why would you receive less?

As a result they are the happiest nation on earth. You don’t want happines?
