A lot of people mentioned that America is the best country to live due to our standards of living.Materialism aside I doubt there is NO better country than America.

What about things like.....
racism
taxes
police brutality, etc..


There are more than a FEW countries where this doesn't exist.
Wait, there's a country that has no racism?

Please tell me where that exists, because I seem to remember a couple of race riots in England last year, and anyone who has ever been to France, knows that that 'liberal' society has some great big race problems- mostly with Middle Eastern peoples, but race problems and police brutality all the same.

And taxes are everywhere, lol.
