Housing can be expensive in urban areas? Shocking. Do their min wage next.

 Sweden doesn't have a statutory minimum wage; instead, wages are determined through collective bargaining agreements between employers and trade unions. This means there isn't a fixed minimum wage that applies across the board, and the lowest wage threshold depends on the specific company's agreement. 

And

The average salary in Sweden in a regular month is SEK 42,248 (USD 3,860.85), according to OECD, and the yearly equivalent of this average salary is SEK 506,967 (USD 46,329.43).

Make sense now why i asked if you'd be happy having a $45k salary taxed at 50%?
