My second flight instructor was a Dane. He left Denmark precisely because of the high tax rate. He saw his parents working simply for the pleasure of paying 70% (yes, the figure is true) of their income in taxes. I wish I could remember the exact wording of a common Danish statement my instructor shared with me. To paraphrase it, it was about the Danish looking toward Germany and seeing the industrious Germans working and producing, while the Danes themselves did nothing.

Shakespeare had it right - 'Something is rotten in Denmark'.
