Have you also visited Europe numerous times?


Mind you, visiting is different from residing



If you want to refute/rebut my opinion, why not do so intelligently. Asking lame questions only shows how shallow your knowledge of the topic is. State your reasons and let us debate or remain silent and learn.

True! Life is harsh everywhere. But we can not compare the harshness of some region/continent to another.

If Europe is walking on thin ice, then the US is no longer walking but falling grin

Do you know the amount of US citizens with Student debt loans, how many Americans can boast of a total health coverage insurance?
America like you said can do better, but Europe will fall off totally in the coming decade, can you see how biased this is.

The US is the Land to be if you want to live in debts/paycheck to paycheck.


there's no point in this epistle

life is harsh every where
even the Europe that you think is good, is walking on thin ice
the generous welfare state has pushed many EU States to the brink a part from Germany and a few others some of them will fall off totally in the coming decade's
America on the other hand can do better but it's still the land to be in anyways

Europe is better than US. No contest. I'll rather be Polish than American, at least as a polish, I'll be an EU citizen and have freedom of movement across the EU.

America to the western world is what Nigeria is to Southern African countries. Nigeria may be richer, but other countries have better quality of life. US is exactly like that.

US has more room for you to innovate and achieve much more than Europe

If one is enterprising, Many countries in Europe will be hell fire for you

Europe is walking on thin ice fiscally, I.e. Europe is in a bad fiscal position
many do not see it

Never knew that I would never read stuff like this from you. You blaming CNN for doing their job effectively? Americans and their stupid gun law and election of that baby balloon should be blamed, I guess you enjoy Fox News(shepard smith is the only voice of reason)

I see you misunderstood the main underlying context of my statement about my blame on CNN. Both CNN and Fox News report news that gear towards the political party they support...so none of them can be called saying the gospel truth with their news coverage in all sincerity.

If you are a hard core liberal then yes, CNN and other Liberal MSM reports will be gospel to your ears and if you're Conservative and don't buy into any of the Liberals ideology then yes, you might favor watching Fox news or other less Liberal focused News Media.

Thank goodness I am an Independent who does not get easily swayed away by either Liberal or Conservative political views. However, it's obvious that the Liberal point of views tend to be more noisy and more aggressive to sway people to their side.

Now about the Americans and their stupid gun laws" as you mentioned...not to make excuses for them but I think another thread on this forum brought out the back and forth discussion about it...and I remember that I mentioned that this gun culture that some Americans are finding it very had to let go of is because of how the US came into its existence and so even as times have changed or that its initial purpose of having the guns for protections against foreign invader or the likes are no longer a major threat the guns rights to own has unfortunately been abused by some very sad and sick opportunist mindset to use on innocent lives.

I did not misunderstood anything I got your point very clear, you were in a way echoing Trump,s fake news cry when news or his lies are called out by news outlets his hatted but praises propaganda from Fox News.

I still don't understand the mentality of Americans who support gun law, people are getting slaughtered in numbers still people are shouting second amendment, how will you excises that from the grave yard?

Even with your gun still you can't defend yourself, you get killed by your police and fellow citizens?

You are absolutely still bent on rewording the meaning of my statement to stick to your own subjective belief about what and how CNN broadcast their News coverage. And mind you this does not have anything to do with Trump as you would want it to be.

One of the greatest thing about the US political system is that it has a very well and thought-out checks and balancing government system that most Countries cannot boast about having...even with most of the Europeans countries.

Elections are held every two years in the US so that alone tells us that the political system in the US gives every American opinions and their stand for about things great consideration to eventually become law.

The US as they say is an overhyped country. How can you explain, the extreme poverty amongst its citizen, the wage gap difference between the rich and poor, humans living in gehttos just like Nigeria. And besides not all roads are tarred, you have bad roads too,.......... See i can Go on and on. The American Media has helped portray the US to be a paradise as a Sort, but in reality, life is harsh over there.
lol... have you been to America before?

Says Who

Your opinion about Democracy in the US as almost dead is definitely not true...believe it or not.

The Majority doesn't necessary speak for ALL...and that is why the Electoral College made sure that everyone's voice be it the ones from the popular or less popular States get to speak for them either through Congress or the Presidency.(Checks and Balances at Play)

I want to believe that the fore fathers of the US already foreseen that if they allowed just the popular or majority States to determine how the country will be governed then some people and States will be left completely ignored.

I don't know what country you are talking about with small roads but in the county I live in the roads we have are far better than the ones I saw in the USA for sure. Then Again I saw a lot of second hand accidented cars in the US, here we use straight from the factory brand new cars that's for a country that produces lots of Cars and exports to other parts of the world.
A lot of you just come to type with your imaginations. If you haven't travelled between at least 3 great countries within the EU, Schengen and the USA you have absolutely no right to comparison.
