Lol loving the complicated answers to this question but as an American I'll tell you that I live in an ontologically evil country that only cares that you survive long enough to reach the height of your productivity. After that you can go kick rocks/suffer death by cancer (and make sure it's on your own dime). 9 times out of 10 the US will consistently pick capital over people.
