> isn't worth the extra 600k

Do you really think you should pay twice as much in the US compared to other countries with equal quality?



If what you're quoting is what you are actually responding to, you've missed the point. That quote is a comparison between a UPS driver and a Doctor, not a Doctor in the US and one in Norway. If you're trying to compare countries, you're not paying twice as much once you account for what goes into achieving that income.


Maybe I didn't get my point across, but what I was getting at: salaries really have to do with the extreme healthcare costs in the US.

I've commented on that one as well. Feel free to read those.
