Its a bit unfair to compare the USA to countries in Europe which have less resources to allocate and less cultural variation to organize into stable societies.
If Europe becomes one country in fifty years, we'll see which is run better.
I was pretty impressed with Ireland though. Dublin is a place I could see myself living happily in.
Best country though? I'd probably go Mongolia or Tibet just because being isolated culturally comes with so many advantages.
People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.
