The Center for Liberal Studies (KEFiM) announced on Wednesday that last year’s so-called “Tax Freedom Day,” i.e. the day on which Greek workers stopped working to cover their annual tax and social security obligations to the state and the social security funds, came two days later than previously thought: It arrived on June 27 instead of June 25.

This is because Greeks had to work 177 days of the 365, said KEFiM, using the methodology of the Tax Foundation.
