Although the quality of life and infrastructure of America is top tier, I find that people in those countries were more rich than us in culture, community and heritage.
America has moved into a hyper individualistic society.
And I’ve had conversations with friends from these regions they admire America simply for the quality of life, but they also know that they’d be trading in culture for capitalismOne of the worst things about living in Cairo and time in Jakarta was the water situations, poor infrastructure. Even the international hotel had questionable maintenance. But outside of that, what those people had was priceless compared to American society.

OfflineThe amount of money Americans make is actually unreal. Even educated professional Britons enter a state of shock and disbelief when they hear how much money a new grad software engineer in the US makes.
So do Americans

Ill do you one better... im talkin bout how USA's future is certain... geography wise i guess

the 10 things americans fear can be summed up into 3 categories really, Economical, Political and Familial... majority being Political
you are talking about incomes and stuff itt not just geography. dont dodge when i rightfully point out that all of this bs only applies to the upperclass of the united states, which is the minority of the populace.

i agree with you, im not saying US or CAD has zero culture, its just not as rich as say, Spanish, Portoguese, Japanese...
I had the same thing convo with international friends as well, they LOVE canada, mostly for money, security and stability but they wouldnt trade it for family, friends and culture either.

Like, everywhere else is either
- In a brink of war, or in a war with neighboring country, or the neighbors
are at war with each other. - said neighboring country is trying to nuke you or nuke each other
- no resources
- full of natural disasters
- no access to stable, clean, drinkable water
- fairly stable political system (?)
- salaries are garbage, like really s*** compared to US or Cad even
The only place I can think of like this is the Nordic countries but theyre beside Russia so no ?
Yeah, this why the whites came here

Homogenization in America has destroyed any sort of culture that once was. Unless you go to the more historical parts of America (states involved in the civil war, or revolutionary war) there's not much history/culture "preserved". Personally am pretty pampered that the area of the US that I live in, since it is very touristy we have some real culture and a bunch of great towns around. But once you get out of this area, it really just becomes highway sprawl (McDonald's, big box stores, etc. Everything that's just entirely soulless and bland). Must be awful for people who live in states like Arizona or Florida where literally everything is just sprawl.

1) US is involved in a proxy war, is trying to avoid a war with China. And has been involved in military operations the past 20 years
2) US is experiencing droughts in the west, hurricane and flooding continue to eat away at the South. My home will probably not exist in the next 100 years because of global warming
3) salaries are all relative. And the min. Wage has not been increased since what 2007
4) America political system is literal political theatre. Been brought out by the rich awhile ago
5) a lot of the global south remains undeveloped because western institutions like IMF trap countries with insane debt and essentially siphon all resources out the country to the hands of transnational corporations in the west.
These are all problems in the US but they don't exactly make it worse then the rest of the world. OP never said the US was perfect. I still believe this is the land of opportunity. You got a better chance of making it here then anywhere else

The US has the highest poverty rates of all OECD countries. And this is using outdated and purposely deflated poverty measures. So you’re just objectively wrong.
