Guest XplsvBam Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 What country do you believe (with facts) is the most politically and economically stable country to live in? and why? I think Finland is but I have NO idea why. I'm actually looking it up now. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korla Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I think Sweden is up there right now. Our level of social security coupled with the technological growth suits me perfect. We should be afraid in the future of a stagnating working-field, people being too afraid to switch jobs because of it being too hard to find one, and it not being a good choice leaving the one you have. For many reasons. And this leaves companies wanting to start up and do something new and creative without people interested in getting out there. This could partly be solved by an immigrating workforce, but there are problems integrating them atm. Or rather "Swedes" have a problem being integrated with. Not saying I'll work here forever, but it sure as hell was a very nice place getting started in life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celt23 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Antarctica & USA 8-) The only real problem in Antarctica is that gigantic ozone layer hole over it and not alot of countries recognize it as a sovereign nation.

Tigra00 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 The USA is probably the best place to live in the world. Notice how almost noone said they wouldn't want to live in the USA on that "Places you'd never live in because" thread? The people who did said they wouldn't live here because there are fat people...As if there aren't in every country. The USA is probably best overall, but for places of beauty and stuff, it'd probably be Netherlands/Finland/Tropical places...Stuff like that. Personally, if I won the lottery and could pick anywhere to live, I'd probably live in Colorado or something.

Barihawk Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Ireland, personally. Beautiful land. I'd live in Dunharrow as my ancestor was the Count about 600 years ago. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers.

indy500fan Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Press freedom Economic freedom I decided that Ireland would be the best place for me to live, although Canada is close too. Those two are both English speaking countries, so I am good there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I may be wrong (it is a pretty common belief in my area, so that may be why I believe it), but I think USA has a higher obese/capita rank than most other countries. It could be a sign of wealth, I give you that, but to me it's a sign of bad culture and bad education, as it comes from McDonalds and the like.

FFS, less than 5% of the population is clinically obese. Yes, we are an overweight nation, but so is almost any other modernized nation! I am sick and tired of this rumor. Obese means over 150 pounds overweight (only counting fat, not muscle). These are people who can't wear pants from normal stores, can't walk, can't fit through doors, and are physically handicapped. They are essentially RARE. We might have a higher obesity rate than other nations, but it's not high AT ALL. You could go 6 months without seeing a single obese person.

Viktorkrum77 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 The USA has very bad education, Belgium has the best. The USA is very fat to put it bluntly, Finland is the least after the 70's epidemic. The USA has bad welfare, Norway has the best and most effective. The USA has a bad democracy or shall I say Plutocracy, Finland has the best. The USA is actually behind in technological advances, Finland rates first. Barihawk, in Michigan you can't go a day without seeing more than 12. In Colorado you could go for weeks.

Barihawk Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Actually, on paper the US education system kicks the pants out of Europe. Our students have much more time to decide what they want to be. I have my flaws with the apprentice system, but that's another matter. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers.

Satenza Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Lets remember theres 300Million people in America, it has some harsh climates and every country in the world hates them. How difficult do you really think it is with that amount of people and that amount of diversity? With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faux Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I already posted here about my thoughts I think. Even though European countries usually top lists, Canada is usually there too. And as 'better' they may be, I'm afraid they may not offer as much diversity as Canada does. :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warri0r45 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 With a very biased opinion, I'd say Australia. This place rocks. Plenty of opportunity and simply stunning geographically. All social systems are above average and bordering on excellent (I haven't studied, this is just from personal experience). The only problem is the school-girl attitude our two rival political parties have. They could do better and progress is halted somewhat because of thier childish bickering. Other than that, Aus rocks your socks. Oh and we rule at sport and beer drinking. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know, Viktor, that you practically sleep with Norway, Finland, Sweden, and sometimes all of European countries, but that does not mean the rest of the world sucks. Yes, I know we aren't all fanatics of the USA, but they deserve some respect. Trix.--quit WoW as of 12/07Thank you 4be2jue for the wonderful sig and avatar!

crimsonking Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I hate America, I hate our government, I hate a lot about it, but I would say it is a good place to live, depending on which state, I've lived in Kansas my whole life, and its said that the particular town I live in is a great place to raise a family, I can't disagree, the place is timid as hell, but I believe I've had a good uprising here, the schools are fairly good, many of the teachers I've had are great(Except for a few that probably didn't belong near children, but I'm not going to go there), its an over all great place to live if your looking to have a family, though I don't doubt there are better places, I may have learned a lot of the world around me, but I've never actually experienced it, thus there are more than likely better places to go. ~^v^~Ex-Leader of the Divine Flames of Redemption~^v^~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
