I would like to see the source data they used for tax levels, and if
they included corporate taxes as well. Americans (and Europeans) pay
a lot of layered on (sales, gas) hidden taxes (basically taxes that
were paid by a provider) they don't really see, but do effect them.

I've mentioned before, the common knowledge that the people in
countries there the taxes are high tend to feel more satisfied with
life. So I dug up an article and a study to with charts and graphs
that show this.
One talks about measures of well being, and is a pdf from Deutche
Bank: http://www.dbresearch.com/PROD/DBR_INTERNET_EN-PROD/PROD0000000000202587.pdf
The other is an article from MSN Money that lists tax burdens of
industrialized countries. (I know, it might be another Microsoft plot)

Interesting stuff.
