however, health care is a lot better (at least my experience in germany). I paid basically nothing for a knee operation this year, which was quickly scheduled, too. Copayments are 10 euro per quarter, versus perhaps 100 bucks per visit in teh states. I don't mind paying taxes here.

So true.
3 years ago i had to do a operation of my nose due to a few hits, elbows during football and even a fight a few years back. Its was simply looking like sh!t and not working well. Before the operation i had like 5 visits at different doctors/nose specialits and hospitals, i spent 2 days in the hospital with the operation and after it i had 4 more visits to a nose specialist doctor.
For all that, with ha good looking and working nose again i had to pay about 180 euros in total.

I don't care about paying a high tax if i get value for the money when i realy need the system for help with health or something else.

health insurance is why it's worth it. And lots of other social benefits...

Although top 3 place for Belgium is pretty impressive.
