@DominicMcGregor The replies here are what is wrong with the UK… even if you accounts for some higher costs, yanks are far better off… unless you are a scrounger, then you are better off in the UK…

This really hit home for me when I went on my honeymoon. I was blessed to be able to go on a cruise from Sydney, around areas like Fiji and Bora Bora for 3 weeks. The individuals from the UK we spoke too (which was many) were all company owners, ex bankers or like us honeymooners. Those individuals form the US. Nurses; Teachers etc. One guy owned just two Taco Trucks in Chicago. Our purchasing power compared to the dollar does matter. It’s a reason why the average US citizen is able to afford a luxury like this cruise and why it’s reversed only for the top in the UK.

@DominicMcGregor You’re way oversimplifying one metric. look at the quality of life metrics - they’re all higher in the UK. We’d be #1 in QOL on average. The reason the US is so high is due to their 1%. Look at the median wage adjusted for purchasing power parity. US is abysmal.

@char15299 @jmeade90 @DominicMcGregor The point, rather, is that in fact, most people in Mississippi aren't. But the small number of rich people gives the illusion via statistics that they are. Average Mississippians are fatter, stupider, poorer and die younger.

@jmeade90 @DominicMcGregor Pretty obviously, there aren't just ten people in Mississippi. The point is not that this state is a fantastic place. It's a proxy for "poor and backward" to Americans. The point, rather, is that even "poor, backward" US states are richer than Britain.

If the UK joined the US as the 51st state. We would be the poorest state in the entire union. Mississippi which is portrayed at swamp dwelling hillbillies in majority of international media is above us. I don’t think people grasp how far we’ve fallen in real terms when it comes to GDP per capita. We’ve seen no growth for almost an entire generations. We’ve seen our productivity decrease and our tax increases. The average person on the UK, on £50,000 is less well off than your average Mississippi swamp dweller.

JUST IN: New analysis reveals Brits thought the UK ranked 7th against US states in income per person — it actually ranked 51st.

@Gourlish @DominicMcGregor It can't be used as a living standards metric, because that would mean someone living in a large shit hole cabin in Alabama is happier than someone living in a 3 bed apartment in Milan

@DominicMcGregor My understanding is that American wages tend to be higher but disposable income is fairly comparable due to things like insurance being much more expensive in the US. American homes are definitely larger than most in the UK, which could be used as a living standards metric.

@DominicMcGregor Doesn't make them happier or live longer. Doesn't make them better educated. Doesn't offer them better opportunities. So we'll done on your misleading use of statistics.

@GovSherrillNJ Proper countries like Germany embraced the fans. You are why the whole world hates America. Small minded people thinking about the next buck.

We inherited an agreement where FIFA is providing $0 for transportation to the World Cup. And while NJ TRANSIT is stuck with a $48 million bill to safely get fans to and from games, FIFA is making $11 billion. I’m not going to stick New Jersey commuters with that tab for years to come. FIFA should pay for the rides. But if they don’t – I’m not going to let New Jersey get taken for one.

31% of the entire country of Germany is now comprised of migrants. THIRTY. ONE. PERCENT. Pair that with a birth-rate in total free fall. The country of Germany as we have known it will cease to exist in 50 years. Absolute disaster.

@haydenhouser @FladdyI @EvaVlaar That's irrelevant. They had democratic elections. Their new leader could turn out to be a sociopathic, lying imbecile like Donald Trump.

@EvaVlaar I have come to the conclusion that the vast majority of people are not morally or intellectually qualified to vote for their own government.

Spain has withdrawn its ambassador from Israel and reopened its embassy in Tehran. Everything you need to know about Pedro Sanchez' Spain, now an open ally of the Iranian Axis.

It took centuries of toil and sacrifice to reach the apex of human civilization that is America. The crux of the Democrat agenda is to resettle the masses of the world on our shores and redistribute the wealth and resources our civilization has produced until nothing is left.

The 15% of Americans who still genuinely support Trump are - Zionist Jews, Iranian diaspora, Gusanos, other reactionary foreign tethers - Menopausal Males (Gen X/Soylennial) whose performative cruelty is overcorrection for dwindling testosterone levels - Evangelical Retards
