Europe is better than America, amirite?

:D

by Anonymous 13 years ago

We Americans only have three countries two our credit, unless you count Central and South America. Europe has many more than three.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, but bear in mind, one of them is France.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

France actually is a really efficient country. But, unfortunately, they're a tad too efficient at fleeing.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, France is nice, it's just of any country in the world, France is apparently the one people don't mind jokes about.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

At the beginning of World War I, 500,000 French soldiers marched into German machine gun fire and died. Is that the same France we're talking about?

oh ok, so because i "support Europe" that means that I do not live there and I use dollars. no sane american stands up for another country, 1 and 2, if it was a good joke i would've taken it fine. over-used and unoriginal

The average European has a higher quality of life then the average American, so by that standard this post is right.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

True, but there is no overall standard of "goodness." You can only really state statistics that imply goodness due to certain connotations. But that's just me being super pedantic. :D

Pshh. We have tons of freedoms, and correct me if I'm wrong, but it's a bit safer here than Europe :P

The crime rates are higher in America so I doubt it's safer.

I've read some places that we have a lower terrorism rate. But it was awhile ago, so it might not still be true...

i've managed not to die so far. i've never experienced all that "high crime rate" and i've lived in a large city. there are dangerous places all over the world, not just one neighborhood in one city in America...

America isn't a continent. SOUTH America and NORTH America are continents.

America is a continent. You don't say eastern Asia and western asia are different continents do you?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Thats because they aren't labeled as eastern Asia or Western Asia. We do have, however, North America and south America.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

lol labeled? on a map? you really think that's because they're two different continents and not for your own convenience? america is one continent. there ARE different ways of saying it, some people say there are 6 continents while some say 7; some even say 4! whichever you choose is fine, as long as you don't make ridiculous statements like your first comment. anyway, if it takes a continent to compare itself to america(north america+south america) wouldn't that mean it's not that good? i mean 1 continent vs. 2 continents?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

They are only connected by a small strip of land, should we call Africa, Asia, and Europe 1 continent?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

a continent isn't simply a piece of land. people make and draw borders for the continents themselves, if you didn't know. they have set agreements just like for the metric system. sure, americans like to use north america and south america because it's easier to refer/understand, but that in no means makes them separate continents. if you had half a pizza with pepperoni and the other with cheese, you'd call one cheese pizza and the other pepperoni, but that doesn't make the two halves completely independent meals. but w/e, choose whichever you want. this is like convincing someone religion

Despite all going wrong right now in America, I love it here (the holidays and weather specifically). But then again,I have lived my whole life here, and I'm just 14 year old kid so I don't really understand the stress of the whole economic crisis. It really depends though. One's not really better then the other. I'd LOVE to visit Europe, but I'd never live there.

this post is only in the negatives because there are more americans on this site. it is but a biased report of people's thoughts on europe vs. america

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Statistically speaking the best countries to live in are in Europe because of better health care, lower crime rates, and over all just better social programs unlike in America where you're honestly left to fend for yourself. Europe also ranks higher in environmental consciousness and the countries have a constant climate throughout (In America, there are cold areas, dessert areas, rainy areas, etc) meaning the weather is the same and not changing from one part of the countries to another. However, Europe was historically the most imperialistic continent with probably some of the most bloodiest wars/rebellions with each other as well as other continents.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

You forgot South Africa

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Country =/= Continent. Unless you mean North America? Or South America? Or both? Anyway. It's kind of pointless to say one thing is better than the other. I've lived in Europe twice, (Baumholder, Germany, to be exact) and I think North America and Europe are both lovely places.
