  1. Interesting numbers but I think we should still be careful with the 2021 data as there is probably a big pandemic special effect, especially in economies that have a strong toourism sector like Greece and Portugal.

  2. Norwegian statistics show that our pay has not risen relative to costs since the early nineties.

    Have you seen the fucking prices here? This chart is disingenuous. And should be matched with cost of living increases over the same time period.

  3. Googled inflation rates for comparison (Lithuania vs Sweden)

    Year | Lithuania | Sweden

    2021 | 4,7 | 3,87
    2020 | 1,2 | 0,5
    2019 | 2,3 | 1,78
    2018 | 2,7 | 1,95
    2017 | 3,7 | 1,79
    2016 | 0,9 | 0,98
    2015 | -0,9 | -0,05
    2014 | 0,1 | 0,18
    2013 | 1,0 | 0,04

    2010 | 1,3 | 1,16
    2009 | 4,2 | 0,49

  4. I feel like having what the actual salary is next to the % increase is important. Going from 1k to 2k is much different than going from 7k to 10k
