Given we're talking about why salaries are higher in the US, i think it's fair to point out the comparison of items that are possible to buy in a normal supermarket here. I searched for parmesan in Walmart and could only buy an entire wheel for ~$26/lb. The people who I'm comparing myself to in the US strive to buy imported European food, so that's the comparison I'm going to end up making. Even basic things like fresh vegetables and fresh meat far more expensive than they are in supermarkets here.
