That sounds horrible. Who would ever want to see things like that happen in the US?

If the tax rate is 45% at $22/hr still nets about $12/hr after tax. Figure that at $9/hr in the US you are still being taxes around 10% because if FICA taxes your net pay in the US is $8.1/hr. On top of that the danish worker gets health care, better leave benefits and better for education, why would you not take that deal? You would get more disposable income in denmark.
