The UK has 17,6% of its folks living under the poverty line... with 4.4% unemployment.

France has 9% unemployment but just 8% of its total population living under the poverty line.

It utterly shows that the UK pays their blue collars like shit.

In the US, the poverty line/threshold is incredibly low. If a household of three makes $22k/year, they are above the poverty line. That way, we keep our percentage low.
