Besides, the difference isn't even that big between the US and the Nordic, at least not when you account for US payments that aren't taxes, e.g. health insurance. Or education...

And if you get into an accident, you won't be billed 3000 or 5000 dollars for an ambulance ride (not even joking). Medicines that are way more covered elsewhere can be pricey in America, like insulin. Et cetera, et cetera.
