"Tax the rich!" - The dumbest slogan ever.

[HoreTore]

Except for Norway, which has an infinte ATM in the North Sea and consequently has much lower personal taxation than the rest of Northwest Europe.

Art thou insane?

The tax level for Norway is over 56.7%, according to this. Which beats the rest of Europe by a large margin.

should serve to minimize tax evasion (legal and otherwise) by the rich.

Legal stuff won't ever reduce tax evasion by much; increasing tax morale is the only way. If people agree that their tax is appropriate, they will pay it. And people won't accept paying much more in taxes than others.
