are US cities really more expensive than London/the UK? s*** is crazy there, housing alone is defs more expensive in the UK

It's hilarious how idiots complain about freedom of speech in the US when there is countries where you will literally be put in prison for saying something

look up PPP for USD vs British Pound

just because its worth "MORE" doesnt mean it is... Look at JYP

1 JYP = not even 1 cent USD

Median wealth of spanish people is higher than the US tho

No

Can't speak for the rest of Canada, but Toronto, more particularly Ontario is becoming a dump

God I hope the housing market crashes

America has a way better job market and housing is far more affordable

aside from that, I would take Canada.

If only there was a country that combined both pros.

Free Healthcare
Cheap Housing
Great Job Market
Diverse

yeah but I bet your career is more stable and isn't going through layoffs

50/60k salary>>>100k Salary for a job that can get you laid off at any time

I’d gladly give up my freedom of speech for an affordable home

You're misrepresenting how most hate speech laws work in western european countries.

It is not that you will be locked up because you got caught saying something extremist to your friends it is about about the public distribution of hate no different to any defamation laws except it is aimed at entire groups of people.

Also get off your high horse when your states implement dont say gay bills and can now reject customers if theyre lgbt

Yeah maybe on the surface it seem better but the crazy thing is that the world is polarised and people living in places that are closest to baseline reality of survival are more focused and less distracted by the bullshit the new generation is concerned with in the west so it be interesting to see how it all plays out.

Yeah this could be said about almost every country that’s the problem with this dumbass thread

How is this not a nice like Christ thread

Then move to one of those countries and see how well it works out for you

I never once mentioned western Europe. What are you on?

Stfu

Lmfao you mad. Makes sense why u have an inferior beta animal like a Cheetah in your pfp

One thing I will say is US has a diversity of potential experiences and environments due to its size alone

Not to mention state/local politics, socioeconomic statuses etc

If you have a good job, house, connections etc it’s a lot different than being evicted from a rental in a country that punishes people for their own poverty

relative to a war zone in an over exploited (term used loosely here) country sure, that’s an incredibly easy juxtaposition to create if you’ve ever turned on a television.

So often though it seems there’s this attitude of just because something is worse somewhere, the person in the better situation should be rendered unable to complain

s*** lacks nuance. If some weird virus or d*** problem or horror movie monster strikes a nordic country with a much better safety net than the US i’m not going to be like “Crine! Stop complaining” Id rather be like damn how are they going to be able to solve this etc this is an issue that should be solved just like anywhere else

I will give you that the average US citizen including me most likely takes for granted certain privileges of living in the imperial core for sure

That’s why they call US the land of opportunity
