[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]If you lived in Finland you'd have something negative to say about it too BUT since its so great, move there. Many of us do have paid maternity leave... its called saving your sick and annual for years and not taking a vacation (i.e. planning) and use that when you have a child. How do you think they pay for all this - very high taxes. And, if you want low cost health insurance, join the military and serve 20 years...[/quote] Taxes in Northern Europe are not substantially higher than taxes in the US. The difference is one of priorities - we spend our tax dollars on the military, and on militarized policing. They spend theirs on education. [/quote] Finland's max personal tax rate is 61.96% Sweden: 59.7 US: 55.9% (Fed + State + Local); 39.6% (Max Fed. Tax) But the majority of people in any country don't pay the max tax rate, and in the US, at least, we know that the very wealthiest barely pay 10% if their income.[/quote]
