Best countries to live in ...

[Hector]

If the U.S. really ranked this low; you would expect to see a mass exodus to countries like Norway but you don't.

Besides...what's up with this "so low" ranking for the USA?

It's number 13 people...that's pretty darn high...come on now...we can't be number one at everything...lol.

But seriously...Iceland?

[fallensaviour]

not during the winter

yes Hogan and Brooke My brother in law's a cop and already met him, he was called up to his house

You should get his address and sit on his front side walk dressed up as the warrior...LOL
You'd probably give him a heart attack.

The new home of Hulk Hogan...

Er, won't they all be down here in another few weeks anyway?

lol! very true

It's all based on certain tangible things like nationalized healthcare, pollution, crime rates, etc. but doesn't seem to measure intangible qualities.

If the U.S. really ranked this low; you would expect to see a mass exodus to countries like Norway but you don't.

I really love travelling to other countries and taking in everything but I always come back with a better appreciation for the good old U.S.A. So many things we take for granted that aren't available elsewhere.

Most of the countries high on the list are rather small - or at least have a small population - of course they are going to be listed as better places to live ... But who do they come running to when they have a problem ? --> good ole lucky #13

>I don't know why Iceland ranks so high...it's a desolate and boring place

That's what they WANT you to believe....

>I'm off to Australia!

I could never live there. I don't like the heat, and EVERYTHING is poisonous! Spiders, fish, PLATAPUSSES! Seriously! A platapus'll mess you up?!?!?

>won't they all be down here in another few weeks anyway?

HE KNOWS THE PLAN! He must be dealt with. Quietly....

But they won't let me in!
Maybe I shouldn't have sent in a photo of me wearing my Mr Spock ears and waving my light saber....[/QUOTE]



If I had to live anywhere, it would certainly be Europe, possibly Spain or Italy for the climate. Just for the simple fact, u have such a wide variety of interesting countries together, basically the cultural pinicle of the world. Would never want to move to Australia, love to visit, but its in the middle of no where. Had a friend from over there, he said he loved Europe, for the simple fact, he could jump on a plane, and be in a differant country in 2 hours, over there, in the middle of the bush. Really just sums it up.

I've traveled a lot, lots of great countries out there.
But truth be told, I've been on the list for a Green Card for the US since 2006.
Need I say more?

Not buying it. America is the best place to be (even with the problems), Canada is great too. The methodology on these things always baffles me.

I'm sure Meule, Cat, and others...would highly disagree with you.

I don't know if you have traveled abroad...but in my case...there are lots of awesome countries around this Earth of ours.

Let's face it...we usually love where we live because we are used to it.

There's no such thing as best this or that...it's all very subjective.

Having said that...I'm glad I was born and for the most part...raised...in the good 'ol USA.

[DocDrako]

I'm off to Australia!

In my dreams...

Speedos? Are you confusing us with some nice European folks?

I think he is, I don't see too many speedos in Canada. (white bellies on the other hand....). For the record, I'm one Canadian who won't be living it up in Florida this winter.
