@Lymantria: Can you take a look on how I have used this in Sweden (Q34)? -- Innocent bystander (talk) 07:55, 26 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Looks good. I think the rates are too high ;)
To allow a consistent selection of the standard rate across countries, maybe we should give it a qualifier as well. Too bad we can't use quickstatements to fill in other countries.

Well done, Innocent bystander. Lymantria (talk) 08:08, 26 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
This is the most important income source for the national government, so yes it is high. :)
To make comparisons between nations, there is maybe more essential to find a "weighted arithmetic mean"? I mean, "food" and "rent/interest" is some of the largest costs for John Average, and for that he pays only 12/0 % VAT! -- Innocent bystander (talk) 09:39, 26 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
I tried to implement the lower rate in Netherlands (Q55) similarly. Lymantria (talk) 10:04, 26 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
