Who the fuk is crying about health care? even the chittiest jobs in America provide you with a health care plan. If you don't have health care it's your fault for being a lazy fuk.

You do know countries like England, Canada and Sweden have WAY worse divorce laws.

That's what they meant all along by "The American Dream". To get fuked over by your own government.

Now people are having their dreams come true.

But do you have the same amount of opportunities? Can anyone get a decent job with a degree? Either way I'd never move there from the US.

Oh, the irony of your statement...
And yes, I could go on and on.

Further,the US is the only first-world country where citizens are not guaranteed healthcare.
Sounds like a total fail to me actually. Even worse - programs trying to make health insurance widely available are shot down and killed ASAP instead of trying to be improved upon.
Yikes.



And from what I've heard - everyone wanting to move to the US is based entirely upon misperception. Either that - or it's just not a politically oppressed and/or war-torn country.
Really doesn't say anything on the US's behalf.

Lol... How old are you kid? You sound like someone in uni who's disillusioned with the fact that degree completion = decent job. Not even close - might as well LDAR.
It was literally a chore for me to gettwojob offers graduating Magna cum laude in Chemical Engineering. Half the petroleum engineering workforce has been laid off.
Trump's frozen federal hiring.

And somehow YOU think degree = job. Just lmfao...

I've always been a pretty strong believer in the choices you make throughout life directly impact how well you live in the US. I've seen a guy start from nothing, born into poverty, parents don't have a car/job, goes to public school, walks to grocery store job, earns enough to buy a car, continues to work throughout highschool supporting parents, studies hard enough to get into decent college, becomes engineer.

Equal opportunities as long as you work hard, you'll make it. The people who expect to be handed "The American Dream" are the ones that will screw everything up. Why bother trying if everyone gets equal results? See how long that lasts.

As someone who has lived in two of those supposedly top 10 cities with best quality of life... lemme tell you, they're boring as fukk.

I'll take NYC or LA or any big U.S. city over them any day.

There's one city in Michigan that the water was found contaminated - EPA jumped on it immediately

First day in office: Trump signs executive order saying that any scientific results - aside from peer reviewed publicatons - funded by taxpayer money is not allowed to be reported to the public. That there scientific censorship.
