There's plenty of countries I'd live in. Having visited over 30 it's quite clear life can be a wonderful adventure and experience in many, many countries.

Still, the U.S. will always feel like home. I very much like it here, despite how much we all seem to hate ourselves these days.


I don't know why there is so much self-hate in the U.S., really seems kind of odd and makes me wonder if other countries experience self-hate.

Becuase you're all very bipolar in your thinking. You love the constitution when it suits, you hate it when it doesn't. You love the constitution when it protects gun rights, you hate it when it protects gay rights. Or you love it when it protects gay rights but hate it when it protects gun rights. You love religious freedom, but you hate the separation of church and state. You support state's rights but only when states are making decisions you agree with. You hate political gridlock in Washington, but you also hate bipartisanship. You think government is the problem, but its actually politics that's the problem. Capitalism and private enterprise is the solution to all problems, but big business is evil.
