Could you live in Europe?

I´d be fine in the USA I think... If I get to take visits back once a year or so.

Could you live in Europe?

We have higher quality clothing and less fatties. And far fewer people lift weights so you look bigger.

We have higher speed limits on the highways.

we have a better quality/price ratio on drinks, whores, medical care and internet connections.

We get fucked for gasoline, land ownership and tend to generally have higher income taxes...

The smallest cash bill we have is worth 6 dollars. Anything smaller we have coins.

I only know a few Americans who moved here. They´re from Florida and Missouri
 
I could definately live there for some time, a few months to a year maybe, but I'm not sure I could live there permanently. I've never been there so this is pure speculation.
 
Although life can be hard in Europe and we do have poor people, we´re still a lot more socialist than the USA and it´s sort of grown into a lot of people, this entitlement and dependancy and also vice versa, sense of being responsible for other citizens you have no personal relation to. It tires me sometimes.

I think one thing that´very telling is voter turnouts for presidential elections.
those don´t usually go below 80% here. The USA never had that much involvement... Not judging it good or bad, but it points to a big difference.
 
It's a nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to stay there. Please don't profer any gubbins about England being part of Europe. We used to spend a penny and now they'd have us euronate.
 
I'm going to stay in Canada because I'm to lazy to do anything.

Consider yourself lucky I even responded to this thread. Hell, I want to get me one of those respirator things so I dont need to breathe for myself.
 
I've spent three weeks in London this year and actually liked it a lot. I could live there if I lived and worked in the City.

Not too crazy about France, Germany or Italy though.
 
Yes, i have and will continue to have a home in europe as well as the U.S.

Its a big world and the borders are only as large as peoples misconceptions about cultural differences.
 
Well, you will have the language problem for a start. There's only 2 European countries who speak English as their first language. Yes, the others have it as a second language, but its still only ever going to be their second language.
 
I'd like to live all over the world....I think.

Spain...England...Brazil....British Columbia....Argentina...Italy...Morocco...Quebec...Chile...Venezuela...AVI/BVI...Australia...New Zealand

Don't have real expensive tastes...just like new adventures.
 
I think I could. Sweden, some parts of France and Switzerland look like they'd be cool. I've met a few Belgian chicks and all were hot.

Belgian chicks are hot but most dont put out easily.
 
You have poor people??? That's horrible! The US only has a meager 27million people at the poverty level. That's a little fact that Bush forced off the fact ledger sheet in his recent meeting in S.America to extend the "fuk the poor in the ass" campaign.

That's just a little note for all the foreign fucks that think all the US are living like kings.

Sure-Id try Europe. Why not? It can't be any worse than a country filled with a bunch of Bush loving morons.

Agreed.

I could visit, but I could never leave my home in the U.S.A. permanently.

Don´t assume too much about what we know and don´t

and in any fair system theres going to be poor people

if a country doesnt have poor people that means in that country you can get away with being a stupid lazy moron and still not be poor
 
I have and hope to again.
 
Yes of course I could live in Europe.

I love the continent and the European culture and values - hopefully it will never lose its identity :) :heart: :heart: :heart:

P.S. Australia is a nice place. New Zealand might be also.

And distances are short.
 
* obesity is on the rise here too
* speed limits might be higher in some countries (in Germany, 2/3 of the highways have no limit at all), but traffic is very dense, so you cannot go fast anyway
* hookers are way cheaper because of competition from the former east bloc; i'd guess 90% of prostitutes in Vienna or Berlin are from the Ukraine, Czech Republic or Bulgaria
* land and housing in general is much more expensive because Europe is more densly populated
* gas prices are insane, 60% of which is taxes
* income tax and social security is up to almost 70% as in Germany or Sweden, absurd; Austria is cheaper though

the #1 reason i probably won't like to move to the US are crime laws; steroids for personal use are legal, they are way cheaper also; age of consent is 14, this lady: http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2005-11-15-momsentenced_x.htm?POE=NEWISVA would have gotten a slap on the wrist at best because of the drugs, you would have to brutally kill several people to get a sentence like this in Europe.
isn't it that 4% of the US male population is in jail and half of then for drug convictions?

It's not 4%, it actually just went over 1% in jail, and something like 3% under supervision including parole and probation.

Black men are overrepresented though; they are over 5%. The percentage of drug related imprisonments is huge; I don't know the number, but it is really sad.

well if i had to i'll move there. But i'll always choose the good ol' usa!
 
I could live there for at least a while; there's a lot I'd like to see. As for permanent residence, well, America would have to really go to shit as far as standards of living.
 
I'd probably rather live in parts of Europe. Americans are pretty stupid and hold too many prejudices.
 
I will reverse this question....

I have been living in the US for 2 months right now and will be living here for 8 more ... as an European the only thing I don't like about the US right now (I might have some more things in a few months :)) is the getting payed and pay things by cheque. The last time I saw someone wright a cheque in Europe must have been somewhere in the mid eighties ... it's to much of a hassle when you are used to receive money on your account ...and I think I could live in the US but I think I wouldn't want to live in the city I live in right now

i dont think ive ever seen cheques
 
I have to come back on statements in this thread after seeing an entire service by
Mr Joel Osteen and his wife Victoria.

(www.google.com)

They do some kind of cross between a church service and a motivation seminar every week in the Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas.

They are poor speakers who often don´t finish their sentences, repeat themselves and have no real knowledge of the bible or theology. When it comes in handy, they even imply pagan beliefs just because they are motivating in what they happen to be saying.
He has a (well kept but still) mullet and both speak with a thick southern accent. They´re not even schooled to do this.

All that is nothing new. We have idiots like this too, standing on streetcorners in sandwich-billboards. But this is a church, bigger than a sports stadium, which seats what looks to be 100 k people, every week, again and again, and the people are closing their eyes with their hands in the air listening to cheesy played out songs about Jesus.

Such cretins can be found wherever, but apparently the USA has a very significant density of them. While Osteen is the worst to date, The US has a history of succesful, stupid televangelists. This is so nerve wreckingly lame that I think I would run back to Europe within the month.

It´s even on this forum. somebody posts about something sad that happened to him and everybody goes "youll be in my prayers". Nobody says that. its rediculous. what are we, the fucking Care Bears now? Do you think it makes a difference? do you not see the big picture?

This is not an attack on Christianity, rather on the way it is practised in the USA. European Christians are like, normal people who happen to believe in a creator and the importance of the book the bible.

I think you should try Europe ASAP.
If you're so concerned about the poor in this country, why don't you give them some of the money you bilked from your "accident"?
The statistically-poor in this country have a higher standard of living than the working classes in many other countries.
You have the typical welfare collector mentality and should just STFU.

I'd like to know too, I'm in Germany and currently at about 55% (before specific breaks I'm entitled to, which brings it down to 48%)

That is the hardest toi get used to. I can see myself living here indefinitely

I lived in italy for 2 years and i went home half way through for a visit...yes it is beautiful and a nice place to live but i think that having family here that i missed made me long to come home...now that i am home i would enjoy going back to italy..........

No i couldnt and this comes from someone who spent some time in Spain (I have citizenship too). It's too "liberal" for me.
