They pay more in some areas, less in others. Single-payer health care means they have more opportunities in employment, as well.

    If you sliced out the top 1% of both countries, their average incomes don't drop as much as ours. They also have more social mobility than the U.S. That's just Germany, but northern Europe and Scandinavia generally do, as well. Southern Europe is more of a basket case.
    they are Democratic socialist

    I see that you skirted by everything. It certainly isn’t harder to get into any European country than here. So why are they all wanting to come here?

    I am 100% convinced if that survey were to break it down, conservatives would be happy here. Liberal would be miserable.

    Because Socialism has failed throughout history and destroys the middle class. It chokes the entrepreneurial spirit and creates too many on Government subsidies.
    Opening the border with the countries to.our south is a detrimental idiotic policy that is going to create chaos to American taxpayers. These are the types of brain dead socialism we are talking about. Not legalizing weed.

    You've skirted providing anything to support your statements. The EU doesn't have open borders. The UK doesn't have open borders. Scandinavia doesn't have open borders.

    I doubt "they all" want to come here.

    Self-described conservatives are the one cheering a candidate and POTUS who says America isn't great.

    Mark this down, as just another example of bacc not being able to debate. Has not rebuttlento the fact that Europe is a better place than America. But immigrants flock here at a much higher percentage than any country in Europe.

    What’s the next topic.

    You've provided nothing to support your assertions and you're accusing me of not being to debate?

    I see you're already moving the goalposts.


    I don't think Europe is a "better place than America." Why do you?

I guarantee you more Republicans are worried about that than the government constantly expanding NSA spying privileges while censoring and demonizing whistle-blowers.

    Should you worry about activists coming to destroy your town? Sure, maybe. Should I worry about white people randomly committing mass murders? Sure, maybe. But, the fact of the matter is that a white man committing mass murder inside of my church is out of my control. All of my focus and smoke should be for the politicians that routinely ignore the issues that I and the vast majority of working class face.

    I love what Andrew Yang said about this (which should be obvious). The Caucasian mass murderer doesn't decide to just pick up a gun and shoot the day of. There are many many steps that come before it that lead to that decision. It makes little sense to sit there and demonize the final step if we can take steps to help the person beforehand and prevent the final step. Obviously this approach isn't popular since it doesn't make money.

    The same can be said for riots. The media would have you focus on the final product as opposed to many many things it took to get people in a place where they felt they had to protest and riot.

    Why don't you talk apples to apples and not apples to oranges but majority of your posts already provide that info so I digress.


    The lunatics going around looting and rioting, assaulting white people in the name of the BLM movement in the hundreds of thousands vastly out number the occasional mentally ill person who walks into a church and murders people.


    You are trying to compare mentally ill people in with people who are choosing to riot , loot, burn and destroy and that is not nearly the same thing and (which should be obvious).

    Those rioting scumbags are not out there destroying city hall or court houses. They are looting drug stores for (Drugs), foot lockers for (Shoes) walmarts for (Electronic items) etc....

    If their beliefs are so justified in your eyes why dont we see videos of them standing inside of court rooms where their injustice was decided???? Because its nothing about that. Its an excuse to act like a bunch of criminals, rob, loot, steal and riot period.

    Most of those looting and rioting aren't doing it in the name of anyone. They're opportunists.

My wife tells me all the time here you can start from nothing and become something no matter what age there you can not once you get to a certain point you couldn't say change careers and become something else you are stuck in it or live off the government. The reasons those people are happy is because that is all they know once you step out and see other systems pretty much every foreigner I know say they love that America you can be anything. My wife was making 4600€ before taxes for the month and took home 1600€, and you only get paid one time. You still live tightly because out of that you gotta pay rent food electricity car payments and everything. One top of that you 19% sales tax on pretty much everything. Gas was about $7 a gallon. They pay for health care as well but the doctors there loved tricare(military insurance)because they actually got paid for their work and you got better care and treatment when you had it. They loved renting to Americans because they could charge what the house is worth. The regular house the Americans would live in the average German could not afford.That's not to say it's all negative. As her and I both say the best thing would be a combination of both

    You, know, I work with a few people that had immigrated from India, and they said the same thing about how they loved that you can go back and reinvent yourself /switch careers if you want to here.
