35 回覆Strawman argument. Median income ==/== standard of living across cultures. The Swedes pour a lot of their income into taxes and social services. So although very few people are rich, everyone lives well. Where as here in the US we've basically spent the last 49 years defunding our government and tearing up the social contract. So even though we all have more money in our pockets, very few of us actually live as well as the Swedes and Europeans.

32 回覆Thing is, if you actually go to Germany or Sweden, even the most deprived parts, and then go to the poorest states in the US, it would be pretty obvious that whatever these stats say, people are far better off

3 回覆Remember when Germany was the economic powerhouse of the entire world simply by kicking out the Jewish bankers and their corrupt central banking system? Now look at it.
