Do McDonald's workers in Denmark make the equivalent of $22 U.S. per hour? Can they live well on that? (leddit.danmark.party)

There's a meme being debated right now that says McDonald's workers in Denmark make $22 U.S. per hour plus they have 6 weeks of vacation.

Is this accurate? U.S. McDonald's workers make much less than this.

Can you work at a fast food place like McDonald's and have a decent standard of living?

No, they do not pay about 50% in taxes.

How much do they pay in taxes then? I used to live in DK and paid roughly 50% in tax so was estimating.

You must have been making a lot of money then. A McD worker would pay around 30-35% in taxes.

Around 31-32% before deductions.

38% I think, but then theres also “skattefradrag” (tax deduction) - like personfradrag, beskæftigelsesfradrag, servicefradrag, kørselsfradrag, or rentefradrag - so it is a bit more complex than just saying “38%”

More than half of the Danes pay less than 1/3 of their income in taxes. The median is about 27%.
