  In Copenhagen Airport there is a sign" Welcome back from the US, remember to adjust your watch back from 1956 to 2026"

  When I went to the states in 24 an American asked me what I thought about the US. My answer was &quot;it&apos;s the nicest third world country I&apos;ve been to&quot;.<br>They were a bit shocked but I just replied honestly.<br>Crap infrastructure, above ground power lines, bad food and water that smells of chemicals is just some of it.

  In March 2020, the Norwegian university NTNU attracted massive international attention. During the coronavirus pandemic outbreak that month, NTNU issued a message asking its international students to return to Norway, describing the USA in a Facebook post, as a country with an &quot;underdeveloped healthcare system&quot; and &quot;underdeveloped public transport infrastructure.&quot;

  The reason European cities are more beautiful is because we build around nature instead of over it as you do in the US.

  In a wealthy country, millionaires also take public transport.

  When the world richest country can&apos;t afford free healthcare you are doing something wrong.

  People in the US who think they live in the best country in the world are the ones who have never travelled and experienced other places.

  US of A is a developing nation with a military dictatorship, lacking in social security, schooling and healthcare.

  Americans used to think they lived in THE best country in the world and they where wrong. Now they think they still live in ONE of the best countries in tha world and they are still badly misstaken.

  Americans are raised on the idea that everything American is the best in the world. Many Americans believe that the world outside America is controlled by America and also think that all useful inventions were created by Americans—which is, of course, far from reality. However, I believe and hope that educated Americans understand the reality. Americans are, to a greater or lesser extent, subjected to brainwashing throughout their lives. Their way of life is based on consumption.
