That’s is a compelling best fit line and a nice correlation but look at ITA v NOR. Same average tax and vast difference in child poverty (factor of 4). Similarly USA v AUS have similar average tax and different poverty, almost by a factor of two.
While I grant your point, tax is not the only factor here.
A note to those who seek to post on this web site and this particular feature: if you give an email address of fake@fake.com your comment will not be posted.
I have to believe that the address you use is real.
For that reason I also rarely accept hotmail and yahoo addresses.
