I’m sure I’m not the only person in the US who doesn’t think it’s the best place to live right now, with how bad COVID is in some places, high medical costs, etc. So, to help us out, what do you like about the US? What is there in the US that you’re jealous of?

The beautiful and almost untouched nature that you have. Of course you have very busy areas but you also have huge parks and natural areas. Europe has been populated by many villages and cities for so long that in the west/south we barely have proper nature. Here where I live there are nice fields and some small forests but they are all young and now as impressive.
Also the price of housing in some areas. Of course places like NY are super expensive but in other areas you can buy extremely cheap houses compared to Europe. In my city the minimum salary (the one for most young people) is 900 euros but the average rent is between 600 and 900 a month. Most of us won’t ever own a house
Freedom of Religion. Freedom of Speech (which apparently can be abused on social media by idiots). The fact that, while there are a bunch of jerks who yell the loudest and get noticed, there are also some very sweet people who just don’t get noticed. I have a lot of friends in the US who are very nice and awesome. None of us have social media (BP is the closest thing for me) so we could all just be invisible but there are nice, law-abiding citizens. And #randomactsofkindness.
There is actually more going going on then is being portrayed. I’m a public health nurse and I’m telling you that people want to get vaccinated and want this to end. It’s just always the case that the ignorant people speak the loudest and craziness. People with the correct information are not screaming usually because the other people won’t understand and they don’t want to. People are mostly good, this world is good.
