@techriot (inlägg med hubzilla) Well, the Government is different everywhere. In the United States or Ukraine, for example, it serves the interests of the rich, while in Russia it serves the interests of ordinary people, as the Russian president has repeatedly said.

@kuchinster That was a well thought out reply. Who would have guessed that the government and people, everywhere, were different? I will remember to keep that in mind.

Since we have concluded that people are different everywhere, then why is it astonishing that there are different results in the wages of Danes and Americans? Also, since we have so concluded that people are indeed, different, with differing opinions and solutions, then why do we need one solution, to suit them all?

@techriot (inlägg med hubzilla) There are probably a lot of factors we don't consider when comparing something similar (in this case, working at a cheap diner).
