[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Europe is poor. So many Americans are woefully unaware of how extremely low salaries are in Europe. Life expectancy is low in the US, but ours is also dragged down because the US deals with a lot more complicated births that'd be terminated in Europe. When kids die below 2 years old, it drags down the mean life expectancy by a lot.[/quote] Europe isn’t poor. Yes, part of it are, but their quality of life is still better than that of poor people in Appalachia. Salaries are lower and more people live in apartments/condos, even in wealthy areas, but their quality of life is still superior to a middle class American in a large SFH. They can take the afternoon off to spend at the lake, they travel for weeks at a time, and their healthcare is affordable. They are not constant stressed about who will take care of their sick children because they have no PTO. [/quote]
