52% income tax is only on income > 67K euros, below that it is tiered with the next level down being 40%.

The wealth tax is subject to an exemption of the first 25K.

Also important: there is no capital gains tax and healthcare costs are ~100 euros / month no matter what you earn.

It is still pretty high though. Maybe not the highest, but high enough that a lot of people will take into account when deciding for or against Amsterdam.

It's high when considered in isolation, but that's silly. When comparing places you should consider all costs, not just the local taxes.

No capital gains tax? Wow. So rich people in The Netherlands pay no taxes? Or is there a wealth tax?

1.2% according to the grandparent comment.

An one who lives in Hungary at the moment, I'd trade this country for Amsterdam any day from a tax standpoint - but admittedly wouldn't go there either way because their extreme right wingers are on par with Jobbik. It's a matter of reference points I suppose.

Surely the land of Donald Trump is somehow better? Or not... /troll

I'm confused, are you claiming that Amsterdam has more right wingers than Hungary? Perhaps this is a case of media distortion. My Czech and English language media tells me that Hungary is currently the 4th Reich.
