"As a Swede:
1) Cheating on taxes is quite literally stealing from every other person in the country."
Yes - thanks for this.
You made my point better than I could.
'Cheating on taxes' is seen as much more of an 'immoral crime' in Scandinavia, than in other places.
In Canada, 'cheating on taxes' is seen like maybe 'cheating a payment' or something. It's 'wrong' obviously, but there is not a 'stigma'.
For whatever reasons (socialized culture, very small community where cause/effect are direct - I don't know? - you tell me :)) - cheating on taxes is a 'much bigger deal', socially, and probably even legally.
