    Excellent. I have very sad memories of this time of year in the US. Endless forms and tedious calculations and then once that is done, you have to do the state form, which is only marginally less complicated. In the end you always ended up paying it seems.
    Australia, which is a relatively high tax country has a fairly straightforward process. I have done mine on line for the last three years.
    Singapore was the easiest by far. One page and about ten lines to fill in. Send it in and within a week, generally a refund. Very efficient, low tax country. Pity about some of the other stuff.

Tom is a retired international lawyer. He was a partner in a City of London law firm and spent almost twenty years abroad serving clients from all over the world.

Returning to London on retirement in 2011, he was dismayed to discover how much liberty had been lost in the UK while he was away.

He’s a classical liberal (libertarian, if you must) who, like his illustrious namesake, considers that

“…government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one.”
