Normally one should students not worry about taxes and future paycheck - you should focus first and foremost on to train for it you are passionate about! But the latest figures from the Ministry of Taxation means that even as students must be aware that in the future most likely will be hit by the upper bracket. The figures show that over one million Danes now paying the hated top tax - equivalent to 44% of all full-time employees Danes. Top-bracket tax means that you as an employee to dispose of approximately 60% of your last earned krone to the state - it varies and is relative to your actual income, since the Danish tax model is progressive (ie the more you earn, the more you pay in taxes ). Economic Wise Men Jan Rose Skaksen commented: "How many who pays tax, is very much a political choice. It is certain, however, that compared to other countries it is an unusually large share of the employed who pay the top tax in Denmark - and the level of tax is very high. "It should be no secret that we here at StudenterGuiden.dk opposes the top tax bracket, and would rather see it abolished as soon as possible - although not realistic in our political sphere of the time. We believe that top tax bracket is clearly an obstacle to Danish 'motivation to work and thus reduce economic growth in society. We believe that a Danish tax model should take into account all groups of society - rich and poor. If you work hard, you should be rewarded and not punished with a high tax. Top-bracket is not for nothing also referred to as misundelses tax. Source: Ekstra Bladet
