Did the survey ask if they wanted a pay cut to match European style wages?

I suspect the survey results will change drastically if each person was shown this table: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disposable_household_and_per_c...

The US might have higher disposable income but there are less benefits to go with that.

I'll stick with the health care, education, paid vacation and sick leave, lower crime rates, lower incarceration rates, zero school shootings, etc.
