lol, comparing living conditions in the empire to those in the third world shitholes it has colonized and ravaged.
Why not compare America to a civilized modern state that doesn't play world hegemon instead? There are some really lovely places to live in this world, and none of them are the US.

Where? Sweden? Canada? NEWSFLASH, those places would've been in the Soviet Union or under chinese domination if not for "the empire." Ask Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, and the periphery around China who are all banding together to resist the ambitions of Xi Jinping in the East and South China seas.
Also, even if some places are better to live in than the US, and I'll concede that I 100% prefer a parliamentary system to our government, you're being extremely harsh on America. It isn't a bad place to live. My family came here with ZERO knowledge of English; my father started a business installing sprinkler systems... I grew up digging up yards in 100 degree heat in Texas, helping him do his work, but it was an honest living and it allowed my family the opportunity for a normal life, free of persecution.
It's all a matter of perspective: I have no idea what your background is or where you're from, but for me, America has meant just about everything. And I can tell you, every Iranian knows the word California - it's synonymous over there with freedom... They all want to come here.
I'm done here though, feel free to disagree.
