PPP is invalid because supply and demand is differnet in every country.


even if the cost to cultivate 100bushels of apples is $1000 worldwide, if people in africa dont eat apples they sell for less making the comparison useless





and no though i am unimpressed by our countries financial situation i wouldnt move to europe, china would be my first choice

blahh blahhh blahhhh whine whine whine

what is a better cost of living comparison then?

Racintweek

just straight up compare them. its the only solid way to do it. it completly compensates for differences in prices of certain goods because your salary is based on the econmy in the country you live in.


if 70% of my income goes to living costs
and some tea drinking bitch only needs 62% to go living costs

well you get the picture. i just like dealing in real numbers not theory and estimates that dont account for everything

don't worry guys, Hillary and John Mccain are working hard to suspend the gas tax and fight for our right to cheap gas prices, Obama says that thats just a shell game and won't help anyone but what does he know? he doesn't wear a flag pin and hates america.

70% of my income does not go to living costs.

You're right, I only get 18mpg on a normal day. 4 cylinders, 2 liters, and a turbo. I hate every minute of it. It costs me $48 to fill my car and $88 to fill my truck and it ends up running me about $20 a day to drive to work.
Also don't forget that oil prices are going up due to inflation, 4% inflation in a 4 month period is just downright outrageous.

ok, let me get this straight you are using random numbers in a arguement about the economy. hmmmm
