United States - In-Depth Debate

I have no problem with the States. As a relatively patriotic Briton, I can still agree that the United States has one of the best economic systems out of all the countries, and it offends me when people say they hate the country so much. I've heard people call it a dictatorship, a police state, and in most cases people call it a racist and fascist country. I want to know their reasons and proof.

It's a pretty good country to live in from what I've heard. It, like all countries, has both good and bad things about it. But it would be high on my list of countries I'd most like to live in.

The United States is a great country and due to Trump’s great agenda, it’s being further boosted.

The US is one of the best countries on Earth to live in, at least, for the people with my mentality. Different people prefer different societal organizations, but the US offers the one that is closest to what I see as a perfect system (only Switzerland disputes the top spot). This country is full of opportunities, it has very friendly and optimistic people all around the country, it leaves the individuals mostly free to live however they see fit, it has incredibly beautiful and diverse landscapes, it is the world's scientific and technological leader by a wide margin, and it is by far the most influential country in the world.

As any other country, it does have its downsides. Infrastructure in most states could use some innovation, the mainstream school education system is somewhat dubious, the healthcare system is extremely overpriced (although its quality is very high), some areas and neighborhoods do not match the rest of the country in quality of life, and the crime rates are much higher than what a First World country should be able to bear without shame - but overall, the average citizen in the US has their dreams in their hands, as long as they are willing to work hard in order to obtain it.

I wish we had a better leadership, too, especially compared to the last couple of years - but this is a universal problem: people are always unhappy with their governments.
