Percentages are displayed as a % of GDP. The real worry for me are the UK and the USA. We hear relatively little (compared to the PIGS) about their prolific spending and the estimates for 2010 show that it is extremely worrying from a global perspective as the return on spending is thought to be negligible once you are in excess of 90% of GDP.
