Taxes pay for your country to function as a first world country - and a pretty good one at that. Canada may have a higher tax rate than America (?), but it's a much nicer country as a result. Same applies for high tax countries like Denmark.
Define "nicer." I love Canada, if I had a better job opportunity there I wouldn't mind immigrating there. However, I wouldn't say it's much "nicer" than the US. Do you equate being more liberal with a country being better? That's just bias. I also don't understand the Denmark pipe dream, it's a tiny country with a population less than 6 million people. It's not a global power, has no real responsibilities, and can take advantage of other nations due to it being a tiny dot on the map. It's hardly comparable to any larger country.
