There isn't any bias in there is there?

I don't know how true that statement is, but most people here in Sweden don't complain about paying taxes. Our income tax is between 30%-50% (depends on how much you earn).
I'm all for high taxes since the state supplies everyone with the basics (free education, subsidied health care/dental work and much more)...
The Golden Rule in Sweden is "Do not think you're better than anybody else".
