There was a study done by an independent organization that Canada has now officially passed the US for their average citizens quality of life, using metrics like average income and the price of goods and services in that area.
They also get free healthcare, which if I had, might have made my 20's a lot better. I'd trade places with a Canadian any day. I happen to like the snow and mountains both and have you seen Vancouver Island? Motherfuckin gorgeous.
To add insult to injury for the US, Canada is also far further along in civil rights.
I tease Josi about Canada b/c I like Josi. But I think most US people make fun of Canada because they're jelly.

-since the government pays to keep all walk in clinics and hospitals free, everyone is seen on urgency basis. Meaning if you need a non life threatening MRI for example the waiting list can be months in some poorer or higher population provinces.
-aboriginal youth on reserves don't have adequate systems in place for broken homes or meeting their needs if the parents default. So you'd see a random motel booked full in a city of just the provincial government putting ~15 year old crees up for weeks because they have no place to go etc, with no support in place for them at all to get their lives back on track.
-canada throws millions and millions at the indigenous peoples here since they essentially took our land for pennies. But throwing money at people and throwing them into a society they just got introduced to doesn't solve anything. Corruption with the respective Chiefs is rampant because the government of Canada can't just force accountability/transparency on us and indigenous people don't just naturally know how to manage a sophisticated society and culture from scratch to flourish in 2015.
Imagine if you took a group of people from some country across the world that was just a bunch of tribes and gave them billions of dollars and expected them to just know how to create a perfect country overnight.
That's fascinating I hadn't heard any of that before. I know it's not perfect but it is on average better than here. Of course I guess that depends on who you are and what you value too.
You said us and our in that statement so you include yourself?
Every country has their downsides, while I agree with you that America isn't the "amazing" country we advertise to the other countries. It's not all that bad, there are worse countries, we all know that, and yes there may be better out there. Honestly, what I don't like about America is the way people that live here act. Some people act like we're this high and mighty country that can destroy anyone in our path to get what we want and that's not how I wish to see this country portrayed as, a toddler throwing a temper tantrum? No! America herself isn't a vicious being, she's actually a very welcoming and warm one. She's beautiful, full of history and full of life.
It's just the people who are in control of her are not treating her like she should be treated, they're abusing her potential.

I would like it to be known that I personally do NOT own flipflops, nor would I wear socks with them.
He got mad at me.

I mean, I was calling America a her because of Lady Liberty. I guess America could be a man, seeing as we don't know if "Lady" Liberty is in fact a "lady" :P
