Just visited this exhibition today at the Museum of History in Luxembourg. 3 floors devoted to people living below the poverty line in Luxembourg.
It seems a little strange that a country that has one of the highest average salaries in the world should have a poverty issue if they had their taxation and government policies correct.
But then Luxembourg seems to exist purely for the European public sector bureaucrats who set the taxation and policies to benefit themselves. So in the end, living in risk of poverty in Luxembourg is classed as having a family income of less than 15,000 Euro's per year, which in most other countries would provide an exceptable living standard.
So rather than address this easily addressable issue, they seem to be proud of the fact they have poverty and this is very much how the exhibition portrays the situation.
As for the rest of the exhibition, the history of Luxembourg is nothing but a timeline of change that has been witnessed in all countries.
Poor Luxembourg? Poor Exhibition!
