LOLOLOL

My thoughts exactly.

The following from the links comments section says it all really.

Comparing the median earner makes sense when comparing similar jobs, but very little sense in surveys like this. If the median earner is a middle-class professional (which will be the case in most Western countries) it's hardly a scientific breakthrough to conclude the median earner will be better off in legislations where taxes are lower. Would it be too embarrassing to include the bottom fifth of the population in the study?

Yes , according to your figures the Austrians are poorer than Alabama so they must be doing it wrong...or are the Austrians actually using Keynesian economics?

The content available on a site dedicated to bringing folks to America should not be promoting racial discord, euro-supremacy, discrimination based on religion , exclusion of groups from immigration based on where they were born, disenfranchisement of voters rights based on how they might vote.

Look again, adjusted to regional price parity they seem pretty tied to me.

Austrian economics is a really cool bedtime story. I'll give you that!

Keynesian economics and/or socialism has always and will always be a failure. The comments in this thread show once again, why anyone, would be better as president than Clinton or Sanders, even if it unfortunately has to be Trump.

A weekend in Vienna or one in Montgomery? Decisions, decisions...

I vote up because I laugh!

Though personally I would vote for a weekend lounging on Dominican Beaches which really does not imply much about their wealth :)

Hey I would escape too if I had to actually live in this heat...last year when we were in FL it was in the 90's and we couldn't wait to get back home to VT to what was only 39 degrees at the time lol

I hope it's not this hot when we get there. No Casinos on the itinerary. Just shows and other activities.
