I assume “Other purposes” is govt kickbacks to mining and gas companies 😬

    That tax breakdown really shows why having clear information about where money goes matters. I’ve found the HR Block customer service number useful when dealing with tax returns, filing questions, tax forms, refunds, account access, and e-filing status, especially when trying to sort out a specific tax issue.

    Always liked this because it helps people see to some extent where money is going.

    I know the UK and Portugal do this as well. It was especially interesting in the UK during the Brexit years because you could see a tiny piece of that pie chart with EU contributions, almost saying “this is how little of our money is going to Europe”, didn’t do any good in the end but hey, still great info to have that all detailed

    I love that it helps you see how little of the welfare payments are going to the unemployed, since that’s the part that concerns people the most.
