- dahart 2y agoThe U.S. GDP per capita is behind Norway, Ireland, Switzerland, and these countries are known for low cost and excellent education. What do you mean about 30% lower population? How is that relevant? You’re quoting a per-capita stat, the population was already factored out. And you’re comparing a single country to 27 countries. Makes zero sense.
