I wonder if the us numbers are misleadingly low because they may not include state and city taxes. https://www.taxpolicycenter.org/briefing-book/what-break

- skissane 6y agoThe OECD website says [1]: > This indicator relates to government as a whole (all government levels) "all government levels" means state/provincial/territorial/regional/county/city/town/etc, the whole lot So I see no evidence it is “misleadingly low”, I think the OECD’s statistics are generally accurate. (More accurate than the UN’s, because the countries whose governments are most likely to commit statistical fraud are not OECD members.)
