Some years ago I were in US on vacation and a Cadillac commercial said you shouldn’t buy cars made by lazy people wo have 4 weeks vacation every year, instead you should buy an American car.
Most Americans have no clue what the rest of the world is like.
Most Americans don’t even understand the progressive income tax system we have, they will go so far as to decline raises because it’ll put them in a higher bracket and they think that will mean less take home pay. It doesn’t! You should always take a raise!
I believe I’ll someday move to a country that has good policies for everything from healthcare, to work life balance, and social safety nets, and I’ll never have to deal with the American nightmare again.
There’s actually a tricky spot for folks who get certain social services which are tied to income. A small raise can bump you out of eligibility for things like medicaid and food stamps, and thus can in fact result in higher expenses, less money in your pocket, and a lower quality of life.
lmao, Germany of all places. This country is designed for people to live paycheck to paycheck, earlier it was at least somewhat justified by social security, but greedy government fucks don’t know where to get money anymore.
There’s no Americans bragging about that. Corporations and the government, sure. The rest of us are to busy living in pain

Yep! The welfare cliff I believe it’s called. Evidence of a poorly designed welfare system, which I think some see as a feature not a bug sadly.
To be fair, the rest of the world isn’t easily accessible for most Americans
Education is broken because on purpose
It’s literally one Google search away. And if they want to travel, you’ll be able to speak English to basically everyone (under 40)
Right? I was like, “Who the fuck in the US is saying ANY of that?”
The media trying to manufacture consent.
Actually the media in Germany is starting to push that narrative, maybe to get us to focus more on work and less on enjoying our lifes
