[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s no doubt that we have an income inequality problem in the US and stagnating wages compared to the cost of living. However, I have to echo the OP. I was in one of the senior most US executive for a EU based company and it’s very colonial. They are literally never in the office, and work the Americans way harder. We need to reexamine of foreign investment schemes.

That being said, the average US executive makes way more, and the EU staff were quite jealous and also annoyed at how quickly and hard thier American counterparts worked. It’s a nightmare.

No one culture is perfect.  American professionals are too wrapped in their careers.  Europeans don't want to work that hard.  Somewhere in the middle is the answer, and ITA about the wage gap in the US.  That is what is going to cause the empire to fall.  At the least, Europe doesn't have such a wide income gap. [/quote]
