==Tax Freedom Day for workers in the European Union==
A 2010 study published in L'Anglophone<ref>[http://www.langlophone.com/20100526_edition/20100526_EU27_data_table_flipped.pdf Wages and Taxes for the Average Joe in the EU 27]</ref>, a Brussels newspaper, compared the tax burdens of "Average Joes" in each of the 27 EU member states and projected the Tax Freedom Day for workers earning a typical wage. Income taxes, social security contributions (by the employee and the employer) and projected VAT contributions were included in the calculations.
Regarding the discrepancy between their calculation of August 3rd as the typical Belgian worker's Tax Freedom Day and that of PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC), L'Anglophone's authors wrote<ref>[http://www.langlophone.com/fullbn.php?id=419 Belgian Workers’ Wages are Highest-Taxed in Western Europe]</ref>: "[PWC's] figures count revenue from all taxes (including those on corporate profits, petrol, cigarettes, &c.) and thus present a more complete picture of the country’s total tax burden," adding that it is "an average applied to all Belgians – not all Belgian workers; in 2008, less than half of Belgium’s population (4.99 million working out of 10.67 million citizens) was legally working. Consequently, a huge share of Belgium’s tax burden is borne by the working population."
