The Swedes and the Danish must be feeling these high ratios given the high quality if life extended to them. This come to mind again a habitual question on " on where do the tax payer's money go"? There seems to be Mismatch between increased tax ratio and the quality of life of an ordinary citizen. Rossano Salvosa Almonia MBA University Professor Apparel Buyer / Production Sent from my iPhone
