>> Take it up with the wikipedia. You. The largest public sector (30% of the entire workforce on a full-time basis [22]) is financed by the world's highest taxes. [23] A value added tax of 25% is levied on the sale of most goods and services (including groceries). The income tax in Denmark ranges from 37.4% [23] to 63% progressively, levied on 4 out of 10 full-time employees. [24] Such high rates mean that 1,010,000 Danes before the end of 2008 (44% of all full-time employees) will be paying a marginal income tax of 63% and a combined marginal tax of 70.9% resulting in warnings from organisations such as the OECD.

Take what up, the vehicle tax of more than 100%?? Man, you don't even know the history behind it, goes back to around 1950... From being a Special "Dollar Currency Premium" aimed at protecting the back then tiny currency reserves of the Danske Nationalbank', it moved on the classic liberal way of becoming a "Tentative Special sales Tax" and on from that to these day's permanent "Car Sales Tax" of as said, anything between 100-200%. You can Google as much as you want, but I lived there 1953-1974 and know more about Denmark than you'd ever get a sniff off in your whole life :) Læg nu af, du aner jo ikke hvad du taler om :) /Taro
