    Just off the top of my head:

    State-sponsored higher education that is later paid back through taxes. Free healthcare, also paid for by taxes, and affordable medicine. Decent mass transit, although railways are a disgrace. Labour laws. Paid sick leave and mandatory minimum vacation days. Paid maternity leave, and tax breaks for new mothers.

    PM is a Russian asset, but still better than Trump.

      wondering which country out of the many performing all this better than the US is described

      Decent mass transit, although railways are a disgrace.

      Ah, got it.

          I was sure this was a dunk on Deutsche Bahn, but now you’re making me doubt it.

            DB would be an improvement.
