Yet it's enough to provide a significantly better quality of life than the US. As a 24 year old, living in America is rough. I'm $30k in student loan debt, struggling to find a job in a non-coastal region, and can become bankrupt and homeless with an unlucky illness.

And my situation is not unique, if anything, I'm above average. I'm lucky enough to have some money in my savings, a middle-class upbringing, and some personal finance classes under my belt. For someone not as lucky, it would be obvious to them that something is incredibly broken in our society.
