The BBC had an article this week comparing tax rates: Which country has the highest tax rate?
Unfortunately that reminds me that I still have to do my income tax - twice! I can't say I'm looking forward to it."At the top end of the distribution we have Belgium where single people pay 43% of earnings in income tax and social security contributions (or national insurance), followed by Germany with 39.9%," says Maurice Nettley, head of tax statistics at the OECD. "The lowest rates are paid in Chile at 7% and Mexico at 9.5%."
