      True. I grew up in the Netherlands where things are similar but now live in New Zealand. The highest tax bracket in NZ is the lowest tax bracket in the Netherlands.

      It will be very difficult for me to go back and pay huge taxes again, knowing that despite the taxes healthcare isn’t free there and corporations getting so many tax incentives. it feels like the burden is unfairly placed on individuals.
