Than in Europe, Australia, and the UK? Laughable.

Why is that laughable, US has a higher median and mean income than nearly all of Europe, Austrialia, and the UK.

This means workers cost more and have more.

According to the first google results this is not true for the US and Australian comparison, even after converting AUD to USD the Australian worker makes about $2000 more than the US worker.

You also fail to recognize that US workers spend more to achieve similar healthcare outcomes, something highly relevant to this conversation.
