What could the EU commission do to improve East European numbers?
Keep on going. The gap is actually slowly closing, as the eastern members economies are growing quickly, partly due to EU support.
That chart seems highly incorrect:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)_per_capitaBy all three organizations Denmark is higher than Sweden and Germany by a margin of almost 10%.
I have no idea why EU would be so far off everybody else?Wikipedia numbers are not the absolute newest, but the past few years the economy of Denmark has done way better than average for EU, where Germany has been clearly behind Denmark.
The chart above regards the median, but Denmark is generally among the most balanced regarding having high wages at the low end. So that should favor Denmark even more compared to Germany.
From the link OP has posted:
Numbers for all ages, Euro 2024 as 2025 is not available:
Sweden 26.915,-
Germany 27.619,-
Denmark 34.843,-Totally in line with what I would have expected!!
Median household income isn’t the same as GDP per capita. Moreover, both the value of GDP and the correction for PPP are dependent on the methodology to estimate them.
I would think the normal number is average, but IDK?
Normally median is specified as average is normally the default.
You have to change the unit of measure to PPP/PPS as described by the graph itself and then you will see that the 2023 data is displayed
If I change to PPS Denmark is still higher than Germeny for 2024.
There is nowhere in the picture it is stated the numbers are from 2023.
And for 2023 Denmark is higher than Sweden.
You should have specified what you actually changed to get the graph you show, as it is it is completely useless.Why are you so hostile, dude? Chill and take a look. Go to the source. Check those options. Take a look at the 2023 data. That is the stuff in the map. And even if you’re looking at the 2024 or 2025 data, there hasn’t been that much change.
