But not every system is taxing you 65% from work and 0-20% from wealth. Indeed US wealth disparity is enormous but this is also a country with highest number of billionaire, gigant corporations and biggest stock exchange. And all of that didn't change the fact that US middle class is wealthiest middle class in the world (except some small countries that cant be compared Norway/Qatar etc.)

These are two different things. The disparaity of wealth between the top and the bottom, indeed between the top and everyone else, is greater than in the other wealthy countries.

Every system is good if you are making money not from work but from wealth.
