Phhtph.  You say "swanning off", I say "fleeing from a raping".  I 
applaud anyone with the initiative to get the hell out, and can only 
shake my head in sympathy for anyone who deliberately put up with it 
through misguided patriotism.  The only thing I've ever heard worse 
than that is for a very brief period, Sweden had a *104%* income tax 
above a certain level, until the geniuses realized people wouldn't 
pay to work.
