Living in one state or city can be radically different from living in another. It's a massive country. Economics, attitudes, and cultural makeup can differ greatly. Also, I just saw 93% lean ground beef for $4.39 a pound. I didn't buy it, though, because ground chicken is cheaper and healthier. As far as Trump being elected President, I'm guessing a lot of people don't realize that the President has very limited powers and Trump couldn't do half of what he has promised. He's even talked about changing laws that aren't even federal, which isn't going to happen unless Congress lets him rewrite the Constitution. |
This post 100%. People who say that either --actually I'm going to delete what I wrote from here onwards. I dont want to get banned over the ignorant.
And while the US isn't my fave country, it certainly isnt the worst. And like this user said, its completely different depending on location. Lived in 4 states and visited about 50% of the country. Every area is vastly different in terms of attitude, atmosphere, culture, etc. Like you can't compare a place like New Mexico to a place like Oregon, it's like night and day. Basically those who generalize the entire country are just ignorant (totally just repeated what I said originally)
