Too bad Walmart greeter isn't making "per capita GDP".

Some quick googling suggested cashiers at Seiyu in Japan earn $7-9/hour USD while Walmart is about double that.

  • If the Japanese cashier makes half the amount, but spends only 1/3 on healthcare that still seems to favor Japan

    • Well sure, then you're kinda cherry picking data that could easily be considered within a margin of error to make a rather unconvincing point

They make more than they would in Japan. But people can make $0 in any country. Regardless, part-time Walmart greeters are fortunately not paying full price for health insurance in the US.
