Then why is the economy of the USA such a mess compared to the one from Belgium?

One of the requirements to get this unemployment check is that you have to search for a job otherwise they'll cut you of. A lot of people that can't work anymore because of some unforeseen circumstances benefit from this system.

You are very young, that's why u lack perspective. You shouldn't be involved in this discussion with your lack of knowledge on the subject.

Belgium is infamous even in social-democratic Sweden for being an even more socialist ruled country than us, having a messed up and rotten economy for decades, with a huge state budget deficit and government debt (~80% of GDP) and chronical mass unemployment.

USA on the other hand is going through a temporary economical Crysis after showing record growth for over a decade. The US economy will recover quickly because it's a dynamic and fundamentally very strong economy.
