    Yes true i also perfer to compare the median wealth (which is still surprisingly high in the US). And even a high median wealth doesnt help you when you become homeless because of the horrible social security

      Yeah looking into numbers regarding this is quite disturbing. Lots of wealth but very high inequality. One of the most unequal countries in the world.

      I’m proud to live in a country with low inequality, but it’s still important to watch out for politics that can lead to higher inequality. 🔍
