It is the greatest country in the world. Unless you are poor or working class or have no health insurance or a minority or LGBTQ.

In 2004, the origin of the worst pandemic in modern times was finally discovered, America was to blame. The virus sprang from the feedlots in Kansas, at the time America had just entered WWI. Their strategy was to starve the Germans into submission. The title of the virus was changed from the erroneous Spanish Flu to the more accurate Blue Soldier. That's what the soldiers in the trenches, who initially caught the virus looked like.

Currently the USA has 59,000 deaths from the coronavirus and rising. It need not have gone that high if the USA had a coordinated system of testing under Medicare for ALL.

All you have to do is look at all those over crowded Italian hospitals to warn you off single payer healthcare....

If the USA is so bad, why do they have the highest immigration in the world? I mean, if other socialist-leaning countries were so much better, why aren't people flocking there?

But instead everyone wants to become an American citizen in terms of the numbers when compared to other so-called utopian states?

hmmmm...maybe it's not that bad afterall?

Actually, there are more people entering Europe.

In any event, your argument is a variation of "there are worse countries". Don't you realize that is a poor argument for USA being the best country in the world?

It is like saying "South Africa is the best country in the world" because people come there from Zambia, Nigeria and Zimbabwe.

I wasn't talking about "worse countries". I was talking about America being the #1 country in the world for immigration.

Europe's numbers are more complicated because they are accessible to more countries where people are fleeing due to wars and famine based on geography. i.e. you can't drive to the US across the ocean.

So again, if healthcare, wealth-divide, crime, etc are so bad in the USA compared to more socialist countires, then why do most want to move there?

You're 'distracting' as you like to say, boob.
Stay on topic, don't be a hypocrite.

Do you really think the US medical system and its free market base are the best in the world?

You are wrong. Most do not want to move there.

It’s the best, not the cheapest, I’m sure we lose that contest consistently.

20% of the worlds immigrants choose the US, 2x more Canadians move to the US than Americans move to Canada (with 10% of the population).

North America has a lot of immigration, but so does Europe. There is probably no big difference in that poor people from 3rd world want to go to 1st world countries.

People walk throug central Amreica to go to USA, they cross the Mediterranian sea by flimsy boats to get to Europe.

That is a piss poor argument for USA being the best country in the world.

You might as well say that "South Africa is the best country in the world" because people come there from Zambia, Nigeria and Zimbabwe.
