minus-square@Cypherlink4•10 months ago Don’t be so much of a drama queen. USA is fine. Better than some places? Sure I’ll grant you that. Fine? Absolutely not. Horrific levels of violence, 22% of the worlds prison population, massive drug abuse issues and a failing health care system. I don’t know a single person from Australia who is remotely interested in immigrating to the US, while I know plenty of Americans keen to live here.
