Keep in mind when it comes to Tobacco and Alcohol, Australia increases the tax each year
Comment from : @yudimerber

Eggs are actually much more expensive here in Australia than what he says They have skyrocketed recently

Comment from : @2young2rocknroll

He quoted the price of a 24-pack of beer So, A$2250 for 12 pack converts to US$1450
Comment from : @2young2rocknroll

The US$ is 64 cents ATM
Comment from : @2young2rocknroll

In New Zealand we pay $1 per egg which is 60c USD Cigarettes are $52 per pack of 25 which is $31 USD Alcohol here is cheap at $35 for a 24 pack of bottles which is $21 USD

Australia has low income rent assistance brState taxes as in the US do not exist brGST is included in the cost of all goods and services straight up not added making it hard to know what is needed to be paid

Ryan: "Cigarettes are so expensive in the US Like $9 a pack"brAustralia: "Hold my beer"

His statement on healthcare are profoundly incorrectmedicare levy comes out of our tax and is income tested his overly generalised statements around our tax system is also incorrect
Comment from : @sunnesunne4039

We pay a lot of tax here in Oz
Comment from : @amishgirl1000

Can’t really believe you’re comparing prices between Australia and the USA when the medical expenses in the states can leave you broke Also, you can do without cigarettes That’s a filthy habit everyone should avoid anyway Many people like a drink or two, but alcohol is hardly a necessity in life The most important things in life are far more affordable in Australia, because our pay rates are higher for minimum wages We do OK, Ryan
Comment from : @arnolddavies6734

This was a really basic comparison and the prices are already outdated Eggs, milk & McDonalds are already more expensive than mentioned No need to talk about how much more expensive housing is, it's unaffordable for most people
Comment from : @bronwynbrin

Comment from : @markflint2629

READ the COMMENTS from AUSTRALIANS because this guy has never lived in Oz and doesn't know anything about how it works here and the labor system and culture A TOTAL MISREPRESENTATION !!!
Comment from : @barnowl

very little an employee can claim on taxes, only business can
Comment from : @michaelthomasross3251

The reason why alcohol,cigarettes, cigars and tobacco is so expensive is because of something called a luxury tax It’s a tax on unhealthy consumable substances to prevent people from getting sick, or addicted
Comment from : @sharronbrennon899

the medcal is from our tax
Comment from : @matthewmeuleman9872

A lot of this guy's figures are just wrong Ryan, I suggest you read the comments from Aussies that actually know this stuff
Comment from : @glenngarrett8785

This guy has missed the size of the pack of beer Pack size in US 12 Pack size in OZ 24 ??
Comment from : @ralannelson7781

He has oversimplified tax so much that I wonder if he's a bit thick or has an agenda Tax systems are of course complicated and would probably need at least a 5 to 10 minute discussion to really compare the two systems A lot of people here have stated that it's wildly incorrect
Comment from : @sophitsa79

Most of the figures he confidently claims have nothing to do with the price of eggs! Except the eggs part he got that right
Comment from : @quantumjank3091

Once again people make the mistake of using the currency exchange rate to compare prices between different countries, when it’s the buying power of one’s labour that is of more relevance The exchange rate is really only an issue when you are spending money you earned in your own country, in another country My wife and I will be spending 6 weeks in the UK and Ireland later on this year, so our major financial concern will be how just far our Australian dollars go, compared to here at home A better gauge, in the case mentioned herein, is to pick a particular job description and it’s hourly rate in the different countries and the price of typical items Just now, I looked up the hourly rate for a Walmart employee, $12 (gross) average and the price of a dozen eggs $420 to $593, so the Walmart worker can buy 2 to 3 dozen eggs with 1 hour’s labour However, an Australian Coles supermarket employee earning $24/hour (gross) can buy 35 to 65 doz eggs, priced between $350 and $680 per doz with 1 hour’s labour I noticed this morning that petrol was selling for $1 70/litre Thus our Coles worker can buy 141 litres or 37 US gallons with an hour’s labour, while our Walmart friends, at $356/US gallon buys 337 gallons with 1 hours labour
Comment from : @mikequinn6206

no one buys a 12 pack of beer, considering it usually only $10 more for a full case (24) as for "Becks" thats usually $50aud a case and thats the fully imported from Belgium i think the alcohol prices he is quoting are way off
Comment from : @kodawolf8231

A small population and a very large country places lots of pressure on infrastructure projects and upkeep, so taxes reflect this
Comment from : @sportsfanivosevic9885

I went to the shop for my neighbour to buy her some pouch tobacco $6850 for 25gm pack and $13400 for 50gm pouch of tobacco A lot of people have turned to roll your own ciggies these days
Comment from : @helenh20mo

Keep up the good work with the vids mate Sorry, but that guy was pulling some of those numbers out of his a$$ - mainly alcohol costs, and assessment of taxes here and there as mentioned in other comments (possibly also reflected in his 42k views, but only 75 likes) What he also didn't take into consideration was the invisible US "tax" - tipping Using the exchange rate in the vid, my AUD100/USD70 meal out could easily be USD90 after sales tax (appears to be 9 in IN) and 18 tip

minimum wage in Aust is $2323 per hr @1 july 23
Comment from : @debkendall

This guy doesn’t understand the intricacies of Australia’s system to do a fair comparison He’s basing it all on what google told him
Comment from : @jaywan5553

When calculating and comparing incomes you have to factor in benefits as well Australians also get an additional 12 of their wage paid directly into their retirement funds, so a $50k wage would also have $6000 paid into retirement Workers also get 10 days paid sick leave and 4 weeks of paid holiday leave Many industries also have access to salary sacrificing- basically we can use up to 40 of our pay to pay bills before tax, therefore reducing our taxable income by 40
Comment from : @jaywan5553

Googled McDonalds wages in Australia Average McDonald's Crew Member hourly pay in Victoria is approximately $2496, which is 23 below the national average And our beer has more alcohol in it Googled tax rate on If you make $30,000 a year living in Australia, you will be taxed $2,842 That means that your net pay will be $27,158 per year, or $2,263 per month Your average tax rate is 95
Comment from : @RoseHagan-d6z

The hourly rate is about $25 an hour plus more in lots of jobs
Comment from : @elainequirk5349

The average income in Aus is actually between $68,900 and $90,800, depending on the source
Comment from : @Shado_wolf

No one wealthy in Australia ?? Australia has one of the highest household debt in the world, Denmark & Singapore higher household debt because there taxes & regulations higher But it also means more public housing than more home ownership per capita In Singapore the government own 90 homes & businesses same as China socalism policy sucks not capitalism
