the majority of americans don't make 'dirt' wage

they make around 50k

americans don't really have a low quality of life too

life quality is also too broad of a term

fix up

I've wondered out of SF for 20 min the other time and seen otherwise.

sf?

San-Francisco

wondered?

USA looks like a huge getto outside of SF and NY

mhmm

don't live in america

There is also San-Diego but it's small.

but cities have more of a problem

the homeless tend to congregate into rich cities for a reason

20 min outside of SF the hell starts and it never ends

back to the original topic, how would quality of life be measured?

this is gonna be a longer answer

lmao

Knowing USA statistic it's a good idea to take homeless, people on government support and a majority of working men into account on wages. 50k is spread between CEO and a taxi driver. CEO gets 49.999 from 50k and a driver gets 0.001. That is a median statistics

I know a girl working 3 jobs in high wage city(SF) and living with 4 roommates because she can't afford anything else.

uhh no

median doesn't work lke that

Why not?

It seems like a war is going on outside of few wealthy cities.

you said the ceo gets 49k from 50k?

Yes

that's how it would be

tnot

not*

What's wrong with it?

say if you work in a company

add all the wages in that company and divide by 2, that would be the median

So if you add 49.999 to 0.001 and divide on two how much is going to be?

the argument against this is that the median can be strewed by outliers

How much?

depends on the wage difference

49.999 and 0.001

say if the boss earns 200k and the workers 10k

add it up

and it would look like the workers earn an avg of 105k
