As someone who has lived in several European countries and China, I couldn't agree more. But hyperbole is so common that this doesn't surprise me one bit.

You gotta be kidding me if you are (1)suggesting that people live better on USA than on (2)Europe, sure some places on the country are better than some places of Europe, but several European countries are above USA (3)in every sense that it matters to a citizien, from (4)social servers to level of happiness. Modern USA is one of the most overrated places to live (5)ever, (6)only really good for the rich, bigger houses don't make it a better country to live.

The irony is strong with this one. So strong it's not even funny.

1. I'm not suggesting, I'm outright saying that in several European countries life is much worse than in America. Have you lived in Greece? Albania? Serbia? Bulgaria? Cyprus? 

2. Read what I wrote again instead of what you imagined I did. "several European countries". Not all.

3. That's vague as hell. Wanna be more specific? How are LGBT rights? How is the job market? I'm gonna let you on a little secret: what matters to you may not matter to another citizen.

4. Not sure what social servers are, but wanna back up that claim about "level of happiness"? A couple of sources will do.

5. Define ever. So, was America a few centuries ago without modern medicine and human rights better? Was it better when there were slaves and black and gay people were getting murdered while most people didn't give a damn? (same with the rest of the world and basic human rights). Le'ts be real.

6. I'm gonna inform all my American friends who are not rich that they are mistaken about being happy. Apparently, they aren't. How anyone can be this misinformed is beyond me.
