We need to stop taking government statistics as de facto goalposts.
Just because the German government says you can live on €13.152/year doesn't make it a fact.
Government numbers also says inflation is 2.6% last year but if I look closely, my bills and mandatory expenses have gone up way more than that.
That article states that Romanians are best off in the EU when it comes to living on minimum wage, while I can tell you that it's definitely not like that in the real world.
Lots of the time statistics are made with a formula tailored by the government to fit a certain political agenda.
