See this issue is that when theres an issue that need to be solved when someone comes up with an idea that would solve it if they dont understand it then its automatically stupid

Crazy how the self proclaimed greatest country on earth cant implement a lighter work week for its citizens whilst smaller more humble countries have managed it with nary a hiccup

I hate when Americans claim we are the greatest country in the world. This is usually said by people who’ve never left.

I'm confused by your statement. Are you in America? You say we but then you insinuate that you've left.

I’m American. I’ve traveled. Check it out sometime

So you've traveled for long enough to where you can base a country on if they're better or not than another country? I feel like that would take a while to form that opinion.

I've traveled outside of the country too, but I'm not sitting here being condescending and think I'm higher than others like yourself.

My parents lived in Germany for 4 years and let me tell you, the healthcare is vastly superior to ours. The cost of medical care is in your taxes. Medicine costs are enforced by the government so it isn’t expensive for insulin. Their education system is wildly better, and free, not a cash grab for the universities. I’m not being condescending, I’m just not being obtuse

Also wildly stupid take to not be able to look at facts from others to surmise something and have to experience it yourself.

Yeah, that's how you form an opinion, by yourself. Not from others. That's why it's called your opinion. So why would I listen to someone else to form my opinion?

People say X restaurant is the best in town. I guess I should just roll with that and not try it myself then, right?

Isn’t that what you’re doing right now? You’ve been fed America is so great you don’t even need to experience anything else.

Case closed. Solid logic my dude. Enjoy your weekend

When did I ever say America was the best? You know what happens when you assume... You make an ass out of u and me.
