I also live in a country with very high tax and I'd need to make more than 120k USD per year to have the same standard of living if I lived in the USA. It's impossible to make that much driving trains and also working 40 hours a week in the US as far as I know. Lower tier blue collar work is even worse.
Low tax is for billionaires.
Yeah exactly, we don't pay our workers a living wage in the USA, it's very well documented at this point. It's a pay problem.
