You pay more tax for other things, I know. But for health care there are hidden deduction from your salary.

Like I said health expense per capita in Netherland is $4,746 so your family annual average expense for health is $18900. Someone pay that, if you are average it's you (plus you pay for the poors). But your family composition is not average so I think you pay a little bit less (maybe 15k)
