Gah! Another tax-lover! Yes yes, gather round to see the freak, people! Bona fide (pan)Scandinavian, in the flesh!
Just so's y'all know, it's true what you've heard : we Scandinavians pay taxes around the 50% mark, and at the same time we lead happy, productive lives.
Yes yes, something in the ground water to be sure! (And we don't let each other carry guns, either!

)
Anyway, I had a great laugh at the "plus tax" page, believe it or not, it's even better when you can identify with BOTH sides of the matter.
Sales taxes, or Value Added Tax or whatever we call them ... it's a special flavor of crazy, definitely.
Gets even better if you're running a small one-man (freelancer) company, like I do. You see, I collect this tax for the state... but then, if my total turnover is less than a certain amount, the state pays it back to me! So, as I've failed to collect enough taxes, the State says "Pfft, you keep it!".
Makes me feel a little bit like Robin Hood, robbing the tax collector - and a little bit like a hobo, dumpster diving for quarters.
Couldn't get much more crazy than that, huh?
Anyway, I look forward to the "Great Anarcho-Libertarian Land Purchase", after which ya'll will show the world how it works in practice. It certainly beats the corporocracy.
Anyway; I follow these comics both for the storytelling (which includes the artwork) and the What-if Politics... if that makes me anarcho-curious, so be it
