That was my source also and yes the actual difference is a mere 30% more - I was eyeballing it. My point wasn't to get into a pissing contest with who is richer, my point was that the US is no less equal than Germany and no one is bitching about how Germany's economy only enriches the top.
- aninhumer 10y agoI also linked to statistics which show that most European countries have significantly higher median wealth than the US. (Although notably not Germany for some reason). The difference between the mean and median wealth is also notably high in the US, which suggests greater inequality.
