I'm in the UK. The comparison makes more sense.

US salaries are a different story entirely. (We can't even get there because of VISA anyway).

Hmm, it seems that if I wanted to go work somewhere over there though, that it would be a crazy pay cut even if we factor in all the benefits

You can't, because if you're American and you work in the UK, you'll have to pay taxes in your home country on top of your British taxes. That will ruin whatever compensation you have.

Please. Let's leave Europe to European and USA to the USA. No cross continent comparison.
