Yes the gdo purchasing power parity america is truly then highest. Some countries like Singapore and Switzerland technically has a high gdp by ppp but in reality an American still out earn and out buy pretty much any country on earth

Most of the median is net negative total net worth. Buying from a position of serfdom is maximum freedom?
Read a story of a Chilean farmer, guy was sole earner, made about $15k USD a year. Had 7 children, health care, well fed, educated, large ranch. Owned his assets. Poor on paper, yet wealthier than most USA workers in all aspects.
