Certainly not, lots of issues in many other countries. It’s just that the density/concentration of problems is higher in EU (IMHO).

- PhilWright 8y agoI don't think so. When people think about the USA they only think about the 1 or 2 most significant problems overall. With Europe you think about the 1 or 2 for each of the constituent countries and so it seems more problematic. To be comparable you would need to think about the 1 or 2 most significant problems for each state in the USA. Once you do that the number of issues is not that different.
- Daishiman 8y agoThe EU doesn't have a looming student loan crisis, or a health crisis due to opioid epidemics. In terms of human suffering caused by these two issues alone I have a hard time believing the EU is worse off.
- hueving 8y agoI fail to see the looming student loan crisis given that they can't be discharged in bankruptcy.
- wpdev_63 8y agoIt's a problem if students can't pay for their student loans. If nearly '40%' of borrowers are expected to default on their student loans, then there will be alot of universities shutting down in the near future and there will be ripple effects in the economy[0].

- lelima 8y agoI recommend the documentary Where to Invade Next, from Michael Moore. I think EU have actually little problems compare with others.
