Great idea to compare "what you pay" vs "what you get" between countries. I'd love to see further analysis downstream: How much revenue per capita each country collects, and how it's allocated. (IIRC, the conventional wisdom is that wealthy Americans are good at legally avoiding taxes, and a disproportionate amount of America's tax money goes to an outsized military and a cost-ineffective healthcare system.)

Thanks, I did actually start work on getting that data but as the blog was already very long, and it would take hours to find and analyse the data, I decided against it. Maybe a future blog!
