When yer paying 50% of your income in straight income tax, and is the second largest exporter of oil in the world, yet *still* cannot pay for the welfare state, something is wrong in the government.

Seems Norwegian voters realized this and took action.

Hope this spreads to Denmark.

Socialists: eat my dust.

Yo Santa,
As you may know the UK has high tax when VAT is included (on all except kids small sized clothing and the bible)
Here we have the NHS (national health service) which too is reaching breaking point
1/3rd of every £billion is wasted on paperwork and beurocracy   :(

And no it isn't free healthcare as many think
we get NI (national insurance tax) stopped at source from wages

Good on you Norway

go go go n get a fair deal for your peoples

Have Fun
