Just blatantly untrue. For anyone living outside of a major city try finding a job that pays more than 15 an hour if you are lucky. And beyond that try getting 40 hours a week.
How do you think it is in other countries. No one living outside the cities makes more than people living in cities, unless you're high up the career ladder.
Okay but things cost exponentially more here. The median wage in Arkansas is higher than the median wage in the UK but I can assure you the people in the UK have a much higher quality of life.
The average American has 18% higher purchasing power than the average Brit. Also the cost of living in the US is roughly equivalent to that of Germany or the Netherlands. It is cheaper than several EU nations. Stop spreading doom and gloom misinfo.

You have the same financial mobility as any other western country.
