Probably about the same. The problem is the number of government employees, it’s what percent of the economy is run by the government. In Europe it’s on the order of 40 to 50%, over here a bit less, but closing quick.

According to Wolframalpha.com in the USA, 22.57 million are government employees, out of a workforce of about 155 million.
That makes the percentage of government employees about 14% in the USA.
Nearly 3 times the rate of socialist Italy? Wake up folks, the USA ALREADY IS SOCIALIST, BIG TIME!
