It is nearly as intertwined as the US and, since the addition of more recent states, has a similar level of income inequality across constituent states.

The US is FAR more like the US than it is unlike it.

>it would take decades or maybe even centuries to close the big cap between the rich and poor countries.

... a lot like the gaps between US states, today?

>The idea of one big european country is so young, that it simply doesn’t make sense to group the countries all together into one stat

Just like it doesn't make sense to group the US states together into one stat. The differences are of similar magnitudes.

In fact, the US states rights means that there are generally far MORE differences between US states than there are between EU countries. Take abortion as one example. There are many more.

>But the US has been a country for centuries, the regional differences aren’t as big

Disagree, the regional differences are VERY similar since the introduction of Eastern European states.

Before that, the US was actually MORE disparate and had more differences than Europe!

And once again, your own sources immediately disagree with you

Eh you can’t try to explain basic economics to stupid people….I tried…..there is no sexist pay gap where women make less because they are women…..but keep listening psychology majors tell you about the economy.

I don't agree with the positioning of "zone of worry" and "depreciating focus" in specific, as they are too close to 0% in Y axis. For example San Marino seems to be in the middle between appreciating and depreciating, while in actuality it was already one of the top spenders and it even raised (even if not much) their spending, I'd say the label should be placed further down

Just admit that neither you or Jordan Peterson has the first idea what you’re talking about here and learn from your mistake.

You haven’t found a single thing that supports your position because you have completely failed to understand what gender pay gap means.

That’s fine. You can always learn. But now that you’ve been told and read at least four articles that have also explained it to you, your continued ignorance is clearly wilful.

This isn’t a matter of opinion. You are stone cold wrong and every single thing you’ve posted shows it.

Your quote literally describes the pay gap exactly as I did.

Have you read any of this or are you just in full rage mode?

> > “The wage gap persists when comparing women to men across similar education level, occupation, income and race.”

Your quote from you link, mate. Clear as day. Says the same in all your other links too - the same thing I told you too

Just admit you didn’t know what gender pay gap means - not does Peterson or Tate or any of your other pet charlatans
