Ah yes, spoken like someone who has never lived outside the US.
I’m American but I’ve been an expat most of my adult life. I love the rest of the world. But Americans simply do not realize how good they have it.
- genocidicbunny 3y ago> Ah yes, spoken like someone who has never lived outside the US. Remember assumptions make an ass out of you and I. I've lived a big chunk of my life outside the US. I have plenty of experience with life outside the US. I also have plenty of experience with life in the US, including that outside the wealthy insula of the major cities.
- RoyalHenOil 3y agoAs an American who immigrated to Australia, but still travels back home a lot to visit friends and family, this is not my take at all. Moving overseas revealed to me how much lower income Americans are getting a raw deal. Yes, it could be a lot worse, but it could also be a lot better (especially considering that the US could handily afford it). I don't think Australia is the nicest country to live in by any means, but it's far better to be middle class or lower class here than in the US.
