    Like a broken record: Yet another reason why the usa sucks nuts

    I'll keep it nice and short boys:

    http://www.economist.com/blogs/gulli...bility-ranking

    Source: The Economist

    What is it?: List of World's Most Livable Cities

    Conclusion:

    - Not a single US city in the Top 10

    Not from the article, but from the study: "Honolulu at 26th tops American cities in the list just ahead of Pittsburgh, ranked 29th, and Los Angeles (which rose to) 44th and New York (which held onto) 56th place."

    Ranking:

    1. Australia - Melbourne
    2. Austria - Vienna
    3. Canada - Vancouver
    4. Canada - Toronto
    5. Canada - Calgary
    6. Australia - Sydney
    7. Finland - Helsinki
    8. Australia - Perth
    9. Australia - Adelaide
    10. New Zealand - Auckland

    ---

    Let me ask the obvious question... why do Americans think they live in the greatest nation in the world?

    Before all you Americans bombard me with your vague, cookie-cutter, generic insults, just soak in the cold hard facts and realize that you're not as great as you think you are.

    I think the fact that you even need to post something like this, just shows how much you feel the need to prove yourself and whatever shitty country you're from. It's actually laughable.

    again, you are just reinforcing my point. Little man syndrome (or little country syndrome).

    I'm assuming an American banged your wife and now you're bitter. Haha, you're pathetic. Keep posting you're quotes like it means something. No matter what, you'll always wish you lived in the US and that's obvious by the way you're attacking Americans. You'll never see an American start a thread about whatever shit country you're from

    Next time you look at yourself in the mirror, please take time to think about what you do in your spare time... once you ponder that thought, ask yourself... "Is there a reason I can't stop researching about America?... Do I have OCD? Is my stance on American society healthy?"

    You are wasting your time forsberg... put your efforts into something more normal and productive... America is a great counrty. GL.

    His username is Forsberg so it could be Sweden. I'm going with either that or Canada.

    Please, men.....this nerd is a fraud!

    Forsberg is a 20 year old part-time student from a small town just outside of Wilkes-Barre, PA. He was a regular Joe Blow nobody here on SBR until he found his "niche" as the resident USA basher. Since this was the closest thing he ever had to feeling "accepted" by normal society, he decided pretending to be a foreigner would only add to his schtick.

    For those who don't believe me, I have numerous emails from Forsy, as well as being a friend on his Facebook page.

    Forsy pal.....time to hit the rack. School day tomorrow.

    I live in one of those cities... and I like it. But most other people from my country can't stand the thought of living here. They think it's crazy busy and smelly and expensive (compared to most other places in this country)

    To feel rich in this city your home will be well over a million bucks, a nice car that costs 30k-40k in US will often be over 100k here. You can't buy a meal for under 10 bucks even at McDonalds, let alone have 35 franchises offering you all you can eat for 9.99.... and I don't think wages are any higher than a big US city... probably less for the top jobs.

    I still like living here, but it doesn't look like Americans have got it too bad in comparison from this distance.

    There are social and economic benefits to it apart from the 'free' hospital/doctor stuff.

    Just having a system where anybody, even the homeless, can afford virtually any sort of medication they might need, any time they need it, raises the economic floor a hell of a lot.

    Poor people are a 'cost' everywhere... healthy poor people cost multiple times less.

    LOL Opie... you call me a NERD in every single post you write about me. Besides "NERD" being as generic as it gets, does your primitive brain have the ability to think of anything new? Anything?

    You're wrong in your assessment by me. I'm very, very well educated, work for a Fortune 500 company that operates in over 100 countries around the world with over 50,000 employees. Everyone on here has heard of it. - And before you say "McDonalds!" No... I'm not going to tell you what field of work I'm employed in, but the name of my organization is well respected in the industry.

    Lastly, I've said it over and over again, you're a LIAR. You can keep bringing up this fictitious Facebook page of mine as another example of one of your one size fits all insults. If we ever threw down, I'd probably knock you out, but I'm not a guy that knocks out old geezers. Nice man anyway in your video. I have nothing to prove to you, nothing, because you're nothing. Keep up your boring comebacks, outright lies and denial that the USA is nothing that it's cracked up to be. Pittsburgh, #26, is that the best you can do?!? LOL. USA = DISGRACE!!!

    Bronxer, you've never left your home state before. Why should anyone listen to anything you have to say about the world.

    "I have nothing to prove to you, nothing, because you're nothing. "

    You are such a pathetic POS. You have EVERYTHING to prove, otherwise, you wouldn't have started this thread

    Just answer one question. What country do you live in? Let me guess...you'll post a quote?! Pathetic.

    There are hospital waiting lists for elective and non-urgent surgery here in Australia too. But is having to wait 6 months for your free knee reconstruction really such a bad situation that it makes public health care a bad thing?! Sure people here complain about it, but I suspect they would be complaining a lot more if suddenly forced to deal with a system like the US has right now.

    Nobody. Not a single soul has to go without even the most expensive sorts of health care.

    We all like to talk like we are not the poor people so it doesn't really affect us. But middle class people are just as badly affected by a $50,000 medical bill, or being forced to shell out hundreds of dollars on drugs every month.

    There is also private health insurance, private hospitals and the ability to pay to be operated on tomorrow if you like here btw. I am pretty sure it's similar in Canada.

    So you took me off ignore there Bronxer, time to face reality, right?

    So just admit it to us, that you're gay and that your wife left you for your best friend, and I'll stop informing everyone of this juicy gossip.

    Nice vid in "your" Mercedes by the way, LOL. You rambled on and on for over a minute and didn't say anything useful whatsoever. Lay off the swearing too pal, gay guys don't swear.

    That makes 2 of us pal! I think we'll do a collaboration video in Forsberg's honor! Can you imgine the look on Forsy's face next Sat nite as we're sitting down to a 16 oz filet at STK, while he's eating meat loaf at the local Luby's diner there in Wilkes-Barre with his mom. Priceless! Not gonna lie Forsy......that's gonna sting a bit!
