Been seeing a lot about how the government passes shitty laws, lot of mass shootings and expensive asf health care. I come from a developing nation and we were always told how America is great and whatnot. Are all states is America bad ?

This is their question. Read the post.
That’s probably a typo, read the title.
And speaking of this weak ass defense you’ve got going, let’s take it one step higher. Do you think developing countries should use America as the shining example of what to be? Surely there are better countries in the world to strive to emulate than America.
I think they should take what works and leave what doesn’t. There are a lot of great things about the US, alongside the not so great things. Why shouldn’t other countries emulate the things that are fantastic here (e.g. our national parks/public land programs as one example).
Just like we should look at things that work in other countries and see if they can improve QOL here. Every place in the world has its good qualities and bad. The US isn’t special in that regard.
Wait… our national parks are the example you came up with?
What about our system do you think qualifies at “working”?
Yes off the top of my head our parks system is emulated world wide and generally the most impressive aspect for visitors of our country.
We also have unparalleled accessibility for people with disabilities. Try to get around Europe in a wheelchair. You won’t have a good time.
It is relatively easy to start a business.
We have the top universities in the world.
We are the best place in terms of medical R&D, as well as scientific research in general
We are above average in gender equality (though there are certainly places that are just as good or better). I wouldn’t want to be a woman in the middle east, for example.
We have the best road connectivity, though obviously quality of those roads could be improved.
We provide more humanitarian aid to foreign countries than anyone else (depending on your perspective this could be good or bad).
Should I go on?
You should back those things up with more than “because I said so” is what you should do.
These are all easily googleable items.
Or whatever, if you want to believe the US has zero redeeming qualities, then go right ahead. I’m kind of sick of talking to someone who has such a fucking negative outlook.
