Whats your reason for emigrating?

  In no particular order: Craving a warmer climate. Not feeling fairly taxed. (My marginal income tax rate is 58 or 60%, I forget which. And it will increase next year. And then again. And so on.) Having stock option vestings taxed at my marginal income tax rate PLUS an additional ~30% for the company's social security payments. Not feeling very hopeful about the economic future of Sweden, with the current flow of economically speaking worthless immigrants/"refugees". (A third of them or so satisfy the UN critera for being a war refugee.) For the past month the rate has been about ~2k/day. It will likely go up exponentially over time unless policies are changed. In Africa alone there are probably half a billion people who would prefer Sweden. Living in a country that has become so twisted that it is social suicide to publicly suggest that having a 10-20x higher immigrant rate of illiterate and uneducated people from e.g. Somalia and Afghanistan than the rest of Europe might be somewhat problematic in the long run.

    58% in tax is ridiculous, especially if you know its not going towards you but towards people with 2nd grade education at best who aren't accustomed to a peaceful society. "~2k/day"... Sweden is doomed.

      Yup.
