This is interesting

I think the per capita giving is an interesting measure - because it tends to equalize the value of money. I wonder if the non-welfare states have more of a time contribution that (at least in the minds of the individuals) equalizes the charitable effort.

It would also be interesting to see the distribution of charitable giving -- to what groups are the contributions being given. I wonder if the higher giving per capita in welfare states is as much a representation of tithing to local church organizations (which tends to be reported) than a more distributed giving picture which may be less accurately reported.
