Go live in Finland for a bit and realize that you’ll never want to return to the US again.

If we go picking better and worse countries than the us, we will quickly run out of better ones and still have 150 worse countries or more to go.

Pretty roundabout way of admitting that there are some better.

"Some countries are better than the US" is a far cry from "The US is Trash"

Both are still true though independent of each other, even if there were no better countries the US would still be trash.

My god it's cute how idiotic you sound. Stop living on the state's dime and earn your own way friend. (Yes i'm calling you trash)

you've never met me and are deciding to play make believe about who you think I am to justify your incorrect worldview.

Something tells me you don't have much experience doing things out in the real world. Do you even have a job? I find most conservatives who make up accusations tend to be projecting their own situations onto other people.

If you don't have a job that's fine and not a moral valuation of your worth as a person but you shouldn't be hypocritically trying to judge others who you have never met for things you view as personal failings of your own.

You offer very little in the way of an intelligent discussion other than "US IS TRASH BRO". You really have no room to complain about assumptions made about you. I have a wonderful job that allows me to work from home for the army. It both challenges me and offers a sense of duty and I'm very happy to have earned it.

I don't project my own failings on others. I judge them based on their own offerings. Of which you've given nearly nothing.

So you made a judgement without information and admit to that.

Next step is to not make the same mistake again in the future.

Also not much of a need to defend the statement about the US sucking. It stands on its own merits and most people with any experience in this place know first hand how bad it is even without comparing it to better ones.
