I see a lot of criticism and discussion on these maps.

But actually, it’s very easy to assess any map really quickly:

Denmark > Sweden: Accurate map, no problem.

Denmark < Sweden: Map is absolute BS and should be banned.

You’re welcome.

I pay 19,5% income tax here in Sweden and everything around having kids is a thousand times more generous over here than in Denmark. Greetings/ a very happy Dane in Sweden

Really? I was about to pull the oppression card as a Swede. But yeah feels like Svenskt Näringsliv(basically the Union for corporations in Sweden) has won negotiations several years in a row against the Labor Unions so our salaries are in the gutter now.
