a couple links that might be interesting:
Overall Tax Burden and Government Spending
http://members.forbes.com/global/2006/0522/032a.html
this is the total gov't spending as percent of GDP, but it doesn't tell you who pays it.
Tax Misery & Reform Index
http://members.forbes.com/global/2006/0522/032.html
has a "Global Comparison of Tax Burden" for several income levels, and for single and married w/2kids categories. Looks like it's only income tax and social security equiv, not sales/VAT taxes, and not property taxes.
