    Why would any Swede mind paying taxes? A society that the rest of the world should emulate as a model of cohesion and decency. Take a trip there and you'll see for yourself.

    Ever since Howard it's all been middle class welfare and baby bonuses. Stop the bribes and fund health and education properly.

    Private education and private healthcare are a joke. Australians want a properly funded public system like they have in the more advanced countries mentioned here.

    And what would the Australian tax figure be as a percentage of GDP in 2011? The 2008 figure is given here, which is ludicrous since there have been hefty tax rises since then.
