They combine income per capita, literacy rates, and life expectancy.

I think you're underestimating how good we have it. We're not perfect, but we're better than most.

Yes, because people baselessly claiming that the US has a low quality of life doesn’t make it true.

Oh come on. For real? Look, I know we got a lot of issues but we are still a first world country. You’re being disrespectful to the developing world if you’re putting America on the same level.

Who knows, not a single one of these has a source.

Yes, I'm American and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

Why wouldn't it be?

cause good life expectancy, income and more, for all the hate it could be worse

If you are not satisfied with your own country, we can change country. A jeep in Turkey is $1 million (based on purchasing power) and the average salary is $300! :)

So you're okay with all the other statistics,but you didn't like this one?😆

Yup. I'll say it, since no one else seems to, anywhere. People come to the US for 1 main reason above all others. To make money. Period. We're the capitalist capital of the world with ten tons of loopholes, scams, schemes, etc. I remember I was just a kid, and my pediatrician was from Iran, and he told my folks that he came here, "to make money". The US is often billed as having "streets paved in gold" and honestly if you're conniving and suave enough, yeah. Don't get me wrong, smarts, hard work and planning can get you moving up the ladder but honestly? We have a culture here where regardless, if you're really good at the game and don't care about stepping on people, you'll do well. I know people legitimately come here for a better life, but many others come because they've heard or are told that they can make a fortune... and many do.

I know the states is REALLY f*cked up right now, but I think that way to many people take it for granted just how good we have it. Most Americans have access to food, clean water, bathrooms, entertainment, and are generally pretty safe going about day-to-day life

I guess it depends on where you live and what your mindset is. I am very grateful to live in the United States. I’ve traveled many places and I believe the US is one of the best places to live. My family came from another country and we are grateful to live in Southern California. There are alot of opportunities in the US.

One of the measures would be GDP per capita. The mean not median. So, the billions if not trillions being held by your 1% is then averaged out to the peasants, on paper. In this case, even a hobo would be worth respectable amount. There is the GINI index, but that doesn't really show much at the ground level.

Yes, they've asked people without any medical condition and/or medical bills.

We DO have excellent health care...if you can pay.

Oil peer pressure

🤦🏼‍♂️

That must be absolutely wrong. In every aspect of society the USA lacks compared to real developed nations

Yea i was like "Ok, Canada, Australia, Amer- tf?"

You seem to underestimate the suckage of the world. Sweden is a terrible corrupted country with a tyrannical socialist regime, yet we are like top 10 countries in the world on every list even though we are the rape and gun- and bombviolence capital of Europe.

Same here with the British flag... Finland I can understand, though. Finland is amazing.

I know. There are so many better countries. Afghanistan, Ukraine right now, Russia, North Korea, China, Somalia, most African countries, Iran, most other Middle East countries, Mexico, Venezuela, and many others are better.

They probably did a computer poll and if you're on a computer, in the U.S., on a website where you're being polled for something like this, then you are probably well off. Edit: Looking at the other comments I see that this probably wasn't done as a computer poll (sorry for making that assumption), but I'm still wondering what's up with the downvotes. Oh well, I guess. And thanks for all the other info, everyone else that commented.

Probaly the US president 💀 trying to make. US look good

That’s sad that you feel that way. My family is Black and we love it here in the United States. There are many opportunities to succeed here. It may not be perfect, but no country is perfect. I work hard and have a great life here. I am grateful.
