Tax Porno

For many years it has been the practice of the Norwegian government to release the tax return/income statements of every citizen for transparency reasons. If the public can see the executives salary then its disparity with the norm can be kept in check. Some people use it for mere voyeurism as they pull the covers back on their neighbors and friends. Interestingly, this has been a practice in the U.S. at times in its history. Click on the title above to see how Norwegians feel about the practice and consider whether this should be renewed as a policy here.
