One doesn't need to "hate" America to see that the nation has problems but for the majority of the residents, it ain't so bad.

Well the crappiest place I've been.......would have been Lima Peru 20 years ago. They had open air meat markets with indigenous persons swatting fly's with long feathers. Meat sitting outside in the sun and heat, doesn't do much for me. Some of the public markets had holes in the floor for bathroom breaks that they actually charged you to use, no toilet, just a hole in the floor. Happy to say that things have improved there over the past 2 decades, I can't say everything has improved but overall it has picked up as their economy has too.
South Africa used to be a great place, today, not so much and I would not step foot there unless they went back to the old way of doing things or at least got some sense of law and order.
One member here mentioned the Philippines, from the sounds of it, the place hasn't changed and I will never go there either. My father was there during parts of his service in WWII and he said it and it's people were savage, that Japan looked down upon them for a reason. With the description from this mentioned member I can see I still have no desire to go.
Why someone would mark Germany as a ****hole I don't know, it's not the same as a few decades ago, but it's still beautiful IMO and the people are friendly.
Have at it:
Some may think of the USA and Canada as being crappy places compared to the way native America's lived. So may go the traditional route and say sub Saharan Africa is the crappiest place in the world, some will say places like Venezuela holds a spot, what do you say?
Will there be a consensus?
Somalia.
\Drops the mike.
Eh, South Sudan, Central African Republic and Chad beat Somalia any day.
I've been to a few really poor places that I liked, Laos and Cambodia...destitute, but great.
Somalia.

This is reply is demonstrative of what passes for leftist intelligence.
On the other hand, I don't trust government water sources and have lived only where I can either manage my own water or buy it from a private water company that submits to independent testing.
I'll let readers decide who between the two of us is suffering a severe case of brain flatulence.
Germany & Scotland are ****hole countries ............ I have that on good account .......
the US is gaining quickly ........
(Sigh) :roll:
Anyone who thinks the United States is a crappy place to live mustn't have done much world traveling.
Some people live in places so bad our trash dumps are considered gold mines for food and resources, and the fact we have clean running water on tap is a modern miracle. :coffeepap:

That isn't what makes the USA a ****hole country. It's the long stunningly hypocritical history of its genocides, its war crimes, its war mongering, its world leading terrorism, its total disdain for the right of others, its heinous crimes, its brutality, its incredible penchant for lying, especially about itself.
This is purely subjective so my vote is for Haiti. I believe I heard that over 90% of the kids there have intestinal parasites or waterborn diseases.
That MUST be why so many want to immigrate here. Your entire post is a clown car of propaganda failure.
That is so their children aren't murdered by invading hordes of Americans in their own countries. Plus that only illustrates how great US propaganda is.
Because European countries and then the USA raped and pillaged Haiti. If the US gave back all the immense wealth it has stolen, the world would be a much better place. But the USA has always been satisfied to murder children both actively and by stealing wealth that belongs to them.
Be glad you are in a country with values that came down from British Anglo-Saxon laws and values.

Yup, people need to know what happened to Haiti...https://kottke.org/18/01/how-haiti-became-poor
I take it then that you are not an American? Or do you just hate your home country so much thanks perhaps to a progressive indoctrination that you can only see the ills and fail to see the good?
Circular conspiracy theory thinking hard at work there.
I am pleasantly surprised at your honesty. Do you think any "true blue, red blooded American" will even read it, let alone learn anything from it?
Why is honesty always met with these exceedingly lame propagandist memes? Is it really too much to ask that you folks try thinking for a change?
You listed a lot of memes and you question the response? :roll:
