“McDonalds workers in Denmark make more than Honda workers in Alabama” is such a key point. It’s the institutions, stupid.

Out of curiosity, what is Denmark's economy?
Other then french fries.
But its TRUE, that you used to be able to make ends meet,
just from an average job. Driving a forklift.
ITS THE OVER HEAD, for welfare states and wars for england,
that is leaving everybody homeless on the streets.
This also shows why Denmark is a happier place than the US. They pay much higher taxes than we do, but they have a social safety net that protects their schooling, working, and retirement days.
I thought this was wrong, but its right. Honda has weirdly low pay. In Huntsville, AL, Toyota pays $23.50/hr at minimum.
Maybe worth pointing out the Honda plant is in the middle of nowhere, while the Toyota plant is in the biggest city in AL.
