- golf1052 7y agoHow far does $15/hour go in some parts of the US vs €11/hour in some parts of Germany?
- fzeroracer 7y agoI imagine if you took a look at total compensation (vacation, PTO, insurance, maternity leave), stronger labor laws and other societal benefits such as cheaper college, those workers earning €11/hr would probably be able to save a lot more of it compared to their counterpart in the US. And bonus if they get sick, they don't have to worry as much about losing their job and spiraling down into crippling debt.
