      Compared to Valley workers, Germans are still cheap.

      So is West Virginia or Oklahoma.

      Yeah, but you still have to pay social taxes on top for every worker. That’s why salary and labour cost are two different things. And boy is it a difference in Germany.

      Take home or total cost?

      For instance, is there a pension to be funded with costs not included in that 100k?
