Eduardo Porter compares Italy with the U.S. in attitudes to public services, health care and taxes

01/11/2010

Why are Americans averse to higher taxes in comparison to Italians and other Europeans asks Porter. And does it have something to do with European satisfaction with seeing tax dollars at work in the homogenous societies of Europe, compared to less evidence of tax dollars put to productive use and the linguistic and cultural diversity in the U.S.?

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
