[1]Mississippi PER CAPITA income: 29K
[2]Worst German State PER CAPITA income: 34K
I have no idea what All About Berln is, and when I looked into their dataset it was...confusing. So I went to Wikipedia. I think you were comparing Household vs Per capita?
Either way, Mississippi isn't the doing as well you're claiming. They also have a 19% poverty rate [1] compared to Germany's 11% [3].
