According a recent report from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, the highest tax burden in the industrialized world is in France-46.1 percent of gross domestic product.
In the United States, it is 27 percent, which includes taxes paid at all levels of government-federal, state, and local.
Welfare state spending in France is 32 percent of GDP, almost double that of the U.S., meaning that $1 out of $3 generated by the French economy is captured by the government and redistributed into social/welfare spending.
Eleven percent in France say religion is very important in the their lives; 22 percent say they attend religious services at least monthly; 11 percent say they pray daily; and 11 percent say they believe in God with absolute certainty.
This is in stark contrast to the United States, where 49 percent say religion is very important to them, 36 percent say they attend religious services at least weekly, 55 percent say they pray daily, and 75 percent say they believe in God.
Only 47 percent of French people say marriage infidelity is morally unacceptable compared with 84 percent of Americans.
In 1958, 82 percent of Americans said religion can solve "Most or all of today's problems" and 7 percent said religion is "Old-fashioned and out of date." By 2015, 57 percent said religion can solve our problems and 30 percent said religious is "Out of date."
