Atlas rightly frames the Democrat Socialists of America (DSA) platform as a takedown of America as we know it. But the “Nordic Model”, if implemented here in America, would crush the middle class. A peek under the hood reveals individual income tax rates here would skyrocket at income levels that would make the average Joe and Josephine squeal like stuck pigs. Using the average US income of $70,630, incomes around $91,800 and above would be taxed at almost 56% (Denmark). Incomes above $127,134 would be taxed at 39.6% (Norway) and incomes above $77,693 would be taxed at 52.4% (Sweden). Add to those figures a Value Added Tax (VAT) of 25% on all goods and services that all three Nordic countries have. Sweden does have a heart, hitting its citizens with “just” a 12% VAT on food. How do you think that would be received here in America?

American voters would do well to take the time, double click, and kick the tires on anything anybody says in a public forum. Our apathy is a major reason why the DSA has gotten this far.
