Top rates:

Sweden is 60%
Norway is 48%
Denmark is 59%
Holland is 52%

I don't know any others off the top of my head, but I imagine that those four are all in the top 5?

BEAT: We have to pay a lot of taxes and it can't be lowered since economy is so hot and much of the money from the taxes can't be spent, so basically paying for nothing.
BRAG: It makes the government run at a sick surplus so the money is put into a fund abroad, of which my share currently is $66k and rapidly growing, so unlike French, German etc. I will actually get some decent money when I get old.

You guys have your own private accounts? That's pretty cool. We just pay into it all are lives and then are subject to whatever our rulers tell us we're going to get and when we're going to get it.

No private accounts, only some promises wrt to payout but it is not protected since every parliament can change it whenever they want. If i.e. the economy would hit a slump they would definately use from the fund and increase government spending and/or lower taxes to stimulate the economy. However, when the amount of money is so large it is inconceivable that it will ever be necessary to spend any large portions for such purposes.

BEAT: We've got the largest number of welfare-clinets and the highest taxes in the world. Well, as far as I know: I haven't really researched the subject.
