This one? https://www.theguardian.com/money/2017/may/27/tax-britons-pa...

The one which has "US Tax rate 20.3%" and "UK Tax rate 18.9%"?

Even if we did pay more tax, how are you accounting for healthcare and other benefits? US state taxes? UK council tax, and the situations where you can have "negative income tax" in the UK (WFTC)?

And, as discussed, you're free of worries about whether or not you'll get healthcare in the UK. (You may experience a delay for non-urgent conditions, I'll give you that)



Its the other way around for those earning under £25k uk 18.9 usa 20.3


That's the same way round as I said, 18.9% in the UK is lower than 20.3% in the US.
