This may be over simplifing it but, if someone is rich, there is no better country on earth to live in. If someone is poor and wants to get rich, again, there is no better country to live in. If, however, someone is poor and is going to remain poor for the rest of their lives, the US is a horrible place to live. Social services are almost nonexistent. Health care is still treated like a luxary. Great schools as well... it's just not a place to live if someone intends on living with government assistance.

^ thats actually a lie.

Europe is the place that "grows" most poor->rich, pr capita.

By alot, many more times than america, simply because getting a education is free here (and starting a bussiness is easier here).

I saw a video that asked a socialogical question "where is the best place in the world to get rich?".

The answear wasnt america.

 

I would have to disagree with you and anyone who says otherwise. The US is the wild west. You can come here and rip people off almost without consequence. Compared to the EU, the US is totally unregulated. Getting rich is the goal and the only goal. Shady business practices are encouraged. It's not "fucking people over" it's "living the dream". Google, Apple, Microsoft... this is the land for sociopathic individuals. Donald Trump? Need I say more?

I don't know you personally, but it sounds like you have trouble handling the fact that we excel in anything which hopefully, isn't the truth. Everywhere excels in something. Where we're the best in one area, the EU is better in another. Life isn't black and white.
