I thought those were ruinous and put us in this fiscal situation we find ourselves in.

It turns out all the bad stuff was a result of tax cuts for fatcats and billionaires only.

Interesting statistics:



I do note Scandinavia is missed out though....
The Netherlands is surprisingly cheap, I found beer expensive when I was there, they must have high wages.

Those beer prices seem quite inflated in some countries. Are they supposed to be at a supermarket or at a bar?

Josquius

No idea.
As I say the Dutch one is super low.

Beer was quite affordable when I was there-- I'd say cheaper than most places in the US.  I was only there for a little over a week but my sample size was fairly large.

I can't fill it out because you fucking morons have protected the doc and disallowed entering text!

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.
