I was curious about how taxes work, and I can go through my tax calculator on [vero.fi](https://vero.fi) but it doesn’t show how that money is spent. I was curious what percentage is used on healthcare. In the breakdown it shows a 1-2% of contribution to the healthcare from the municipal tax, but that seems very low. That is lower than the public broadcasting tax. Surely some other parts of the taxes are also used for healthcare.
Is there anywhere where I can see a breakdown of how our taxes are used?

Here’s a nifty visualization but it’s only in finnish I think http://www.valtionbudjetti.fi/
Inefficiently.
Keep in mind only about 10% of state tax revenue comes from income tax. There’s much bigger sources of income for the state like VAT, petrol tax etc.
Most of it goes for hookers and the rest goes for blow. /s
