Sure USA workers are probably better off but in USA there would be 6k in deduction for Kaiser Healthcare family plan plus up to 3k out of pocket; then there are the additional dental costs; employee likely must own a car (no Taipei transport); deal with potentially higher income, sales, and property tax; much higher child-care cost; schools for children in many areas may be of lower quality or more expensive; the rate of gun crime, gun suicide, and drug use is higher; etc etc
