    I’m shocked the UK is as high as it is. Land costs a huge amount here, as does energy (highest in Europe).

    Then again, the UK has an unusually large services sector after Thatcher basically decided to kill the manufacturing sector, and the UK is probably the IT leader in Europe, so I guess it has that going for it.

    China being so ridiculously low has me questioning the data though…
