The only important number is government spending as % of GDP. US ~38%, UK ~42%. However the UK has universal heathcare where US simply mandates health insurance making the effective tax burden lower in the UK. In either case the US tax burden is close enough to EU levels not to make a significant difference. |

Globally. Still here might be cases where a particular group funds an unproportionally high part of the spending. And you might be the edge case where you earn the money in country A to save and retire on it in country B, so A's sales tax doesn't affect you this much.
