Talking about the wealthiest country in Europe. I'm glad you are not cherry picking your data when you expose facts.

This is in comparison to the US as this whole thread is about the US.

Unless you mean that the US is in fact not a wealthy country if you are looking at above facts. Then that's something that could be argued.

No, this whole thread is about Alabama.

The US is almost exactly as diverse as the EU (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_and_terr...). Alabama is more comparable to Estonia than it is to Germany.

If you want to compare apples to apples, there are States in the US where citizens pay higher taxes and get benefits like free university: https://money.cnn.com/2017/04/08/pf/college/new-york-free-tu...
