A very interesting article from the New York Times, comparing the burden of tax in the US, over the last 30 years and across income class. It is data centric (so, analysis is limited) but it really is very interesting to see the shift from federal income tax to local and payroll ones. And it is also very curious to understand Americans are now paying less taxes (as a percentage of their household income) than they were 30 years ago - and the distribution of the burden. Does anyone if there is a similar study for Portugal?
Ah! You can see NYT's article in http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2012/11/30/us/tax-burden.html?smid=fb-share
