Back in 2007 the average british guy was richer than the average american. It was better to be british in 2007 than to be american.
People actually preferred to move to Britain for the higher salary in 2007 than America.

Europe is stagnating, while the US is not.
Furthermore, I live in a city with one of the highest GDPs per capita in the world, and I am lower middle class.
You have to make a series of adjustments to try to estimate the average life of a citizen.
There is an oil refinery in my city.

sorry but you are too young to remember, 2007 crash was mostly a euro thing because they couldn't get out of it fast enough while the us government very quickly propped up a lot of huge businesses including tax rebates, it was a huge scandal but in the end it was probably the right thing to do

only canada was unscathed

what brazilian city has "one of the highest GDP per capita in the world"

no way that is true

>>213753055
President Kennedy Espirito Santo. I don't know how it is today, but it used to be one of the largest in the world. It simply has an oil refinery and oil, and very few people living there.

GDP per capita does not indicate anything about the life of the average citizen.
You have to take the average income per capita and adjust it for the average price of things.

2008 crash was an elaborate american inside job to fuck europe in the ass, everything after has huge alarm bells and signs pointing to it. It originated there, they were hit the least by it and seemingly had moneyprinting magic tricks to catapult out of it going at an increase paced than they did before, meanwhile everyone else were set back atleast 10 years and had to struggle out of it with actual real economics

false, it was an entirely US thing and the EU could've kicked you on the ground but your government whipped its servile prostitutes and they did the "Sterilization" where they began absorbing the American QEs' inflationary byproduct by holding more and more US dollars even though it made no sense to do that. They did it through quick "swap lines" with the Fed, where everything in excess was offloaded through the swap lines and held by us for literally no logical reason. Why doesn't your Fed go ahead and get some extra euros to hold and then distribute to the banks to "stabilize the economy"? Because why the fuck would it lmao what does the economy have to do with a foreign currency. Well - we did (were forced to do) exactly that to upkeep the global dominance of the dollar. And it's happening again by the way with the trillion-dollar draining of the continent.

euroscepticism existed in britain since before joining the EU and continued all throughout their membership, they always saw EU integration with suspicion

No they just started selling more bonds. That's why their debt is so high. It's a contencious topic in their politics. No one thinks it's sustainable. At the same time everyone knows that if the feared collapse of the US economy actually happens, they'll drag down everyone else down with them. So they keep selling bonds. Basically the US can loan themselves out of crisis in a way that smaller cunts can't. UK defaulting on their debt wouldn't crash the world economy.

statistical noise. It used to be actually richer than pretty much everyone pre-1914.

There was definitely a time around the late 2000s/early 2010s when British media was the most culturally dominant force in America. Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Sherlock, the Beatles LOVE tour. I remember being a teenager at the time and seeing people wearing Union Jack shirts everywhere. Everyone here wanted to be British. It was a comfy time.

Isn't that what happened anyway?
Both UK and the EU are basically USA's vassals anyway

Fucked the tories and their genius plan of austerity. But this figure is a bit misleading, back then gbp was like 2 usd so our GDP in dollars was inflated by the high exchange rate.

Britroaches chose to use the last ten years importing infinity jeets and Africans, covering up the activities of grooming gangs, implementing Sharia law in most urban centers, demonizing the native British identity and making Adolescence on Netflix, all the while stuffing their fat fuck faces with Greggs sausage rolls.

If any of you are tempted to feel sorry for Bongs for the situation they are now in, remember that those posting here under the UK flag, were enthusiastic supporters of this. The Casey report confirms that every British adult above the age of 20, including the posters here, were complicit in the activities of the Paki groomers. Many of them played a supporting or enabling role in criticizing those who tried to stop it. As we speak, many of them are joining protests being organized across the UK by the Labour government in support of the groomers and against any further investigation or inquiry into the affair
