Your sentence is very nice but saying "how many of these Muslims committed terrorist acts" isn't nice of You i guess, believe me,when the day Your government didn't want it, even one terrorist can not move his finger to pull the trigger. if we talk about terrorism, both sides are hurting Each other one way or an other, the one just wears military uniform and called army :thumbsup Peace. |

I'm saying the US had to come up with one first, and in order to preserve their way of life they also HAVE to stay on top of military technology, or I'm sure the have-not's and the dreaded axisofevil-onians of the world would have attacked them long ago. It isn't the smog over LA or the statue of Liberty that protects America. Hey, I'm not agreeing with the OP that it's the "best" country in the world, but I certainly am saying that they are definitely willing to defend the freedoms they do have and their way of life. You're saying no country that puts that much money into weapons development can be the best. I'm saying you are wrong. Being the best often means what you have is worth defending, and how does a country have defensive capability? Oh that's right...... via a MILITARY. WEAPONS. Hello? Rush to be right. yeah. Nothing but time here friend. Take as long as you need to understand what I'm telling you. :thumbsup |

Canada has faults as well, but we didn't start a thread sticking our own noses up our own assholes. Americans have a false view of their own country. You can't even keep on one fucking topic in a thread, your focus and egos can't handle it. You need to search for a false hope just to live another day in your pill popping sad lives. This doesn't apply to all of you, but god damn, the world is laughing at you for your decade of mistakes and all you do is blame each other and start threads like this trying to convince each other how great you are. Your parents and grand parents are embarrassed by you. Shut your mouths and start actually doing something with your lazy pathetic lives, you are not the best country in the world, there are more degrees of rating yourself than being able to blow up shit and thinking you have diversity. |
is it...?

nooo.... Serbia is much much better :D

I've lived in Canada, I've been treated like a second class citizen in Canada, I've seen neighborhoods in Vancouver that rival any drug infested hood in the USA. As for diversity, my parents came to this country as legal Immigrants. They started in a one bedroom with two kids, worked hard, and lived the American Dream. Telling me, an Immigrant that came from a 3rd world country, that my views are skewed or wrong about the USA, means absolutely nothing to me. So go ahead and default back to the usual retort of how you all burned down our white house. |

Hey I never said that people or nations don't have a right to defend themselves but you'll notice the only time nuclear weapons have actually been used was to attack Japan. So you're probably going to say that it saved thousands of American lives and shortened the war by months and completely ignore the facts that Japan was on its knees by that time and that the American government knew that the Soviets would soon have the bomb too and they needed to be shown that America wasn't afraid to use nukes. |

Jesus these threads always kill me LOL
To each their own folks. |
There are a ton of excellent countries out there... USA, Canada, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, etc. In my opinion, the USA is the top country in the World to live if you want to get rich, but I personally think countries that better look after their poor & needy are overall "better" (the fact that people get kicked out of hospitals, etc. in the USA is just fucked). To each their own though, Americans are EXTREMELY generous and charitable people, they are true innovators and have lead the World to many cutting edge medical breakthroughs, etc. The fact that 13 million families live in gated communities there is fucked though, I'm happy here in Canada but I consider tons of countries out there to be "great".

Bottom line,
there are negative aspects about every country out there. To me, our good qualities far outweigh the bad ones. People get lost in the hype, Americans are generally good for the most part. Yes there is ignorance, but this is universal. One thing I cannot stand is anyone from Europe bad mouthing the USA when they aren't even knowledgeable to have an opinion on the subject, just as I don't for their country. It's a horse of a different color, people ARE allowed to disagree and hold firm on their own beliefs, but don't let stupid shit fly out of the side of your mouth while voicing your opinion.. and if you do, expect to get cracked :2 cents: |

I've traveled pretty extensively.. I would say, overall, the USA is the best. However, there are other places I'd rather live if certain things were in place. Switzerland & Italy(retirement) to name a couple.
Doug E, I've walked down the street in east St. Louis hundreds of times and never gotten mugged or shot at. I spent 30 days in southern Europe and had more than a dozen attempts for my wallet and 3 knives pulled on me. Just because gang members and drug dealers kill each other.. doesn't mean they're gonna kill you or your family. And the good thing about America is.. you can have as many guns in your home as you'd like to make sure that family is protected. |
I'm still waiting for someone to post the objective criteria that makes it possible to determine the "best" country in the world.
Or was I correct when I said it's entirely subjective and a pointless exercise? |
USA also a sleeping giant

ok, first of all, hello over there and have a great Memorial Day, respet!.
Then you will be fucking me because of my nickname, i know you, but, i'm from Uruguay, and i'm living in Uruguay, i'm not a Mexican, or Cuban, or an illegal beaner, nor any of those racist adjectives you have to name people who doesn't speak English. I must say that i barely post anything in this board but i find this topic very interesting, its always good to talk bad about USA and its world crimes. U.S. is not the best country in the world, far from that, it's just a Big country that HAD lots of money for lots of people, just that, please don't get confused, because you had money 2 years ago to buy Ferraris or Chryslers, doesn't mean you're the best country in the world. Now you don't even have Chryslers anymore. The thing about comparing the U.S. with other countries is that, U.S. is far behind them, you can read Michael Moore if you want, and he'll let you know where you're stepping. England kicks U.S. ass in lots of things, one of them, Health System. France, Italy, Germany, and even Spain are kicking u.s.a ass, not only in Health System, Educational Systems too, they can study for free in University, and they're much better than average U.S. graduates. Then, the worse thing about US is that, its been worried during the past 100 years to tell the world that it is in fact the best country in the world, and they forget to show the world why they are the best country. U.S. its been paying military goverments all around Latin and South America to keep them shut and doing what Uncle Sam wants. That doesn't happened with Cuba and Fidel Castro, now, see how things are, U.S. blocked Cuba's international trades and markets by threating the world with ''if you buy or sell to Cuba, the comunists, we won't buy you, and remember, we're the best country in the world, you need us''. Now Uncle Sam is on his knees and Cuba, Fidel and the ''red comunists'' are still there, without money, but with great education and the best MD's and athlets in the world, they stood still without Dollars ;). BTW, where is Nixon and watergate? where is JFK? you killed a president because he was catholic?! what the fuck is on your minds? Do you remember when Jhon Rambo was friend of Afghan people? now you hate Afghanistan. Do u remember when you trained those Bin Laden's friends? now you say they're terrorists. Tell me something Bush lovers that voted for that donkey 2 times and the texas cowboy fucked you up 2 fucking times, and left you a fucked inheritance, don't you know that with all the money you spent in wars over the past 100 years you could be the most important and greatest country in the world?. No you don't, you're just too worried saying, ''we're the greatest country''. Having a gun doesn't make you better than the rest of the un-gunned countries. You just think you can go and shot every country you want because they have petrol, and you say ''they have nuclear weapons'' to cover it. WHERE THE FUCK were the Saddam Hussein's nukes? im not saying the guy was a good guy, far from that, but, who the fuck are you U.S to decide who lives and who dies?. Uncle Sam is an old and creepy bastard trying to say the world ''im still the best'' selling Hollywood crapshit, because he can't say ''live the American Dream'' anymore, banks are down, loans are closed, and now you're feeling bad because you won't be able to buy the 10th plasma for your pimp home. Come on people, you don't need a plasma to feel good. U.S is not the number 1 country in the world. Even Jamaica is better than you. You confuse having money with the treatment you give to people, no man, it doesn't matter if you have money, a guy deserves to live besides his Life or Medical Ensurance, a girl deserves to study in the best Universities besides their poor parents that work they ass all day and can't afford Harvard. A Mexican deserves to live in peace, not fighting wars because Bush wanted to make turby biz with the Bin Laden's family. Now i must say that this new president you got its making things much more better than what i expected, well, he's probably the first intelligent President you got in the last 120 years. Now, don't think that he will save your asses moving numbers and making the consumism and capitalism the daily routine again. Change your fucking mind and you'll be the best country in the world. Getting Obama as the president was a nice and very important step, now open your mind and study a bit the rest of the world, we also exist, and as i said, even Cuba is safer , sometimes and in some places better than U.S. find out how many bank robberies were done in Cuba in the last 80 years. Only 2. well, i said a lot, and i learnt all that U.S. history small screen in my FREE FOR ALL CITIZENS High School in Uruguay, we also have free4all health system, Universities, Sport campus and we don't live in a bubble, we study the rest of the world. See? even Uruguay is better than U.S. in some point. Cya guys, go get a Chrysler...if you find one. |
hehehe, not a single amswer?.
