    I’m from Western Europe. Housing is much much more expensive here. If you’re on a verge of homelessness in US, I have bad news for you.

    In any case, billions of people can’t even dream of US quality of life. That’s just a fact. Your medical care might be expensive, but you have it, most people don’t have access to modern medicine at all. Hundreds of millions don’t have access to clean water. I don’t think you understand how people live elsewhere.

      Even if what you’re saying is true, and nowhere exists on Earth where there is a high quality of life, it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t aim to get there.

        You can aim for whatever you want, but how’s that’s relevant to the discussion?

      This in Western Europe? I live in northern Europe and have traveled a lot throughout all western Europe. Where the heck is this squalor you’re talking about exactly? Please be geographically specific.

      It is much worse here in Latin America where you have European cost of life but Latin American wages.
