Working in neuroscience of consciousness field I feel him deeply. Although 57k sounds amazing to a Europoor

You can basically half American salary numbers because we have to pay for a lot of stuff that Europeans usually don't need to pay for. $57k in America is struggling if you live in a city. Anything below $40k is one car repair away from being financially ruined.

You guys have cars while being poor? Sorry but seems stupid to me

Welcome to our country that has utterly failed to invest in public transit outside of a few major cities, such that we must be dependent on cars. Love it here. amerikkka

We don't have public transit, so we need cars... It's part of what makes us poor...

Death to America

You are correct. We are forced to have them though. There's no mass transit and everything is two hours away on foot. Most new cars now are $40k unless you get like a base Sentra but the median income is only $60k.
