Saying one sucks less then the other doesn't make it good.
[QUOTE=Laserbeams;29242704]I never understood people who don't like to live in America. I live in a second world country, and this place is a shithole compared to the US, we have 200$ payroll, corruption, and a bunch of assholes for a government. Learn to appreciate what you have.[/QUOTE]
You're free to leave Ukraine if you don't like it just as Americans are free to leave America if they don't like it

No, I'm not, I'm too poor to emigrate.
And I don't want to. This place sucks, but I'm too much of a patriot, and I still believe we will become a great country in my lifetime.

Yeah but nobody would ride it because it's not something you'd do in a kayak.
It's like saying "Hey wow that lava flow would make one hell of a car ride."
Jesus CHRIST.
I'm a Canadian and I would love to move to the states.

It's not a hard place to live by any stretch of the word, and most of the people I've met living here were not rude to me, granted there were still plenty of people who were assholes but what Country doesn't have those? I know plenty of them are in Canada.

Your argument is invalid.

p.s. The people who live in the states who have the means to move to Canada don't have to, they're not the population that's poor and getting fucked over big time.

We've got just as much problems with that as any other country, thinking that Brazil is full of criminals superstition.

Well if you don't want to leave that's fine
But why are you complaining about those who DO want to leave their country?

I'm not complaining, it's just that I dont understand them
I used to live in Minnesota, which was like Canada but still America so it was super cool. Now I live where ever the Marines want me to live, but since I only have to really follow the UCMJ things are pretty bitchen.

Ukraine is on the incline, America is on the decline
Easy to understand
I here bad things about Canada, Australia, and the UK. Let's face it. All English speaking, former English colony, first world countries have their pros and cons.

Well there is quantifiable data that shows how all of those countries you mentioned rank against one another, and it's called the Inequality Adjusted Human Development Index

Yay, Norway.
[QUOTE=Carne;29249316]Yay, Norway.[/QUOTE]
Norway is first even when you don't adjust for inequalities, which shows how equal Norway is
Good job

True that. The amount of money my parents paid for our 3000+ SF house, we'd be able to afford a mansion in the states no problem.

IHDI measures equality between different social groups, HDI measures living standard.
[QUOTE=Ond kaja;29250634]IHDI measures equality between different social groups, HDI measures living standard.[/QUOTE]
IHDI adjusts the HDI based on inequality between social groups, it's the better one since they changed the HDI formula in 2010.

Where are you exactly
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;29255873]Nova Scotia, which isn't a bad place, I just live in the most rural part of it.
2 hours away from the nearest movie theater...

This is a magical place where people think that you can't get AIDS in Canada because it's an airborn disease in "Stupid America" only.[/QUOTE]
