There’s no Americans bragging about that. Corporations and the government, sure. The rest of us are to busy living in pain

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.

To be fair, the rest of the world isn’t easily accessible for most Americans

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)

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
