Instead of Sorority rush week and luxury dorms, the UK has an average life expectancy 8 years longer than Mississippi.
the united states is objectively richer than europe but we spend all our money in extremely stupid ways
Same metric that makes people think that russia is like italy. US general staff still believes it.
The range makes all the difference - this woman in the UK would make the rational choice to stop working at £100k due to tax cliffs or £90k revenue before having to apply VAT and bump prices for zero gain. Letting her loose on the pockets of rich parents is good for everyone
Have yoy read what you posted?
Are you claming Mississippi is in the northeast?
The post literally calls out "students from the North East", not the 2nd worlders in Mississippi
curious, what do SEC schools offer other than the athletics?
like is there a cheerleader/athlete track that would incentivise this kind of behaviour
Well, comparing Americans to Danes. I think the correct way to describe it is: Average richer, median poorer.
If you would’ve read that second screenshot it says a lot of those students are from the northeast. Most of SEC schools enrollment rise is from out of staters fleeing deteriorating, increasingly woke schools up north. Rich ppl, not from south, willing to spend
There was just a month of posting about how Europeans don't have air conditioning, do.tjet really not realize how much poorer they are? Effective state propaganda if true.
This is nice copium to keep US goys from revolting, meanwhile facts are brutal for US vs UK comparison 
Poorest 10% in UK has better standard of living than 90% of Americans. Fact, not opinion btw

All the wealth of America goes into wasteful private luxuries instead of broad public services and goods
Exactly. There’s a small but significant population of very rich people in the south that heavily inflate the average. Regular people in Mississippi might as well live in a third world country compared to Western Europe
So average people in the US spend money for their kids to get advice on outfits and social norms?
Rich in per capita GDP; poor in culture, public works, and general quality of life
This is not how Mississippi richer than the UK looks like, this is how the K-shaped economy in the US looks like.
You’re becoming a Zimbabwe and somehow are proud of it.
There’s a value proposition here that people aren’t seeing. Maybe this is how families demonstrate value to their increasingly independent children who will now be exposed to a lot of competing values.
