Norway; Social Engineering thru Taxation

Norway certainly is an interesting country in that taxes are so high it tends to balance out everything. You see if you start making too much money, why produce anymore than you need, you just pay most of it in taxes anyway. Norway has a huge Middle Class, like 98 plus percent or more we are told. The taxes are outrageous and it seems to be social engineering thru taxation, but does that really make sense?

For instance if people do not wish to work more than they need because they will simply be paying more in taxes then why work any more than one has too? If everyone has the same amount of everything then eventually everyone considers themselves equal because they are. Well economically speaking that is. Yet one has to ask isn’t that really moving people more towards socialism, as in if the government taxes are so high then the government uses these taxes to provide more and in doing so, again alleviates the need to work hard to produce much more because the government will give it too you.

Some may really like this idea, great move to Norway, if they will take you, because as great a country as it is and it is a very nice place with really nice people. I must say that I chose the Capitalism over that any day and I will be staying right here in the USA. Thank you very much and good day.
