“France also tops the list on tax revenue as a percent of GDP at 46%”

Claim: France tops the list of countries on tax revenue as a share of GDP, at 46%.

Evidence. France is consistently at or near the top of OECD tax-to-GDP rankings, but INSEE puts French compulsory levies at 43.6% of GDP in 2025, not 46%.

Re-rated: France is at or near the top of OECD tax-to-GDP rankings, so the point stands; 46% vs 43.6% is not load-bearing.
