What is the job market like in Europe? (obviously that varies a ton between countries like France and Italy v. wealthier countries like Denmark).

I always got the sense it was stagnant. Their classes of income and wealth are closer because there's fewer super-rich, but, it is truly easier to get from say, entry level to $80k+ than it is in the U.S.? Or is there kind of a glut of people under 50 that basically all have the same lifestyle - fewer poor, fewer rich. Their medium and average income levels seem to be lower than the U.S.

Not saying any of this is better or more desirable, I think free healthcare is maybe the most important thing any country should do. But I wonder if it's better to be an educated professional in IT, law, engineering, etc, in the U.S.
