Yeh, well that statement is just fueled by ignorance of other cultures, to
say that any place is the greatest place to live is just a subjective
thing based on your world view. Other people have a different opinion and
if you can't see that it is you who is ignorant

And through one little statement (which also is the best defense) I will stand up for the greater America: The United States of America is the most sought after living space in the world. Millions and millions of people would rather live in America than in their homeland. Hundred-thousands if not millions of people enter the United States every month. The United States is reaching a state of overpopulation which is the primary cause of crime, growth of housing development, etc. You may ask why do these people flow into America like they do. The answer is simple: The United States of America offers economic prosperity, economic freedom, and a government which does care about them. To prove the caring factor: More than half of the Federal Budget goes to welfare and the Department of Health & Human Services is the most well-funded.

And America has its share of problems, but a lot less problems than the rest of the world. It's not a perfect country and it is those imperfections which make the United States of America a beautiful country to live in.
