I believe it is the Scandinavian countries, I have heard of people getting fines for speeding that are the equivalent of $100,000or more

the interesting part to me is
Should everyone pay their fair share?
If so, would that mean everyone should pays to enter?
I get confused to when i need to pay my fair share, and when I should get offended because the government doesn't give me something that I am owed
Funny thing about “fair shares” - how do you define it. Can’t remember which country does it, but a European country assesses traffic fines (specially speeding at least) based on the individuals income, so the working poor and the wealthy are penalized equally.

It's not a jet if it goes suck-squeeze-bang-blow.
But a jet engine does go suck-squeeze-bang-blow...

If it does, you've probbly caused a compressor stall. Or an ingested foreign object has. In the air it doesn't suck as much as it uses airflow from speed, directed by the variable inlet guide vanes. If it bangs, you have a real problem and fuel is continuously ignited in the burner box or hot section.
