Man shut the fuck up, the US is still richer, more developed and better to live in than most countries. Just be happy with that.
-
richer
Concentrated in the hands of very few. Over half of the population has negative wealth.
more developed
I'll give you that one, though not everyone sees any benefit of it.
better to live in
Again, far from everyone. There's areas with barely a dirt road and no access to clean water, there's neighborhoods that look like 1990s Sarajevo right next to ultra-rich neighborhoods and women and minorities are discriminated against and abused more than most other Western countries.
Just be happy with that.
No.

Bro just be happy being a wage slave. It's easy. We all need to do our part for the shareholders.

The USA is a shithole.

Spoken like someone who has no idea what they're talking about
-
Spoken like someone who doesn't close their eyes and goes "America great!" every time
It is a shithole of a country, with barely any democracy, cops that are more likely to murder you than help, and debt incurring healthcare. There are barely any worker rights, wealth isn't distributed at all, housing is a mess. The US has a homeless problem in every large city, a mental health crisis, and an opioid epidemic.
US is a shithole, whether you like it or not, it's a fact.

Nah, hear him out. He's right.

Gotta agree with you bud. America certainly should change for the better, but this post is some privelaged ass shit. All these people downvoting should talk to someone who escaped cuba or who has friends and family who died on the west bank last month.
-
escaped cuba
Never ask a gusano what they "escaped" from

American forgetting about the whole of Europe, Asia, Australia, Canada, and some of south America.

The US is a better place to live than most of S America, huge parts of Asia, and half of Europe.
Just look at the migration numbers, people voting with their feet.

I'm not arguing every country in those areas. My point is the joke doesn't make sense as there's large populations who believe this to be true.
25â„… of my workmates are first or second generation USAians. They earn less here than they would in the US. By your logic, Australia is better place to live than the US.
I mean, I don't disagree.
