Living in USA or Canada is hyped?

Do people really have freedom? I see many people are drug addict and uneducated. Also people work for minimum wage. I mean I had help for school from my dad but if they have parents who can’t they have to work or get student loan. I dont know if it worth living in North America.

I mean quality of life. if you have same amount of money living in other country brings you more. Everything is too inflated here. I don't get the same satisfactory that I get with same amount money. I have to point out this too.

Any time you have a free society, you will also have some people who do better than others. I think the main concept of a "free country" (and it is often misunderstood) is that it provides equal OPPORTUNITY for all, not necessarily equal RESULTS for all. You are free to use your own talent and effort to pursue your dreams. But there is no GUARANTEE of success.

The alternative is what you find in many other countries in the world where socialism or communism is found. Everyone is equal. But either equally poor or equally mediocre.

There is no nation in the history of the human race that has created more life enhancing inventions, more medical breakthroughs, more innovative technologies, liberated more people from tyranny and poverty or given more charitable donations than the United States of America. And all of it is the result of the liberty Americans enjoy based on the founding principles of the country (which were pioneering and revolutionary at the time America was founded and have since been emulated by other countries).

I will grant you that there are forces on America today, both from without and within, that seek to diminish or completely eliminate these principles and the freedom they bestow. But however much freedom Americans have lost, the rest of the world has lost much more, or never had it in the first place.

It is often said that you can tell a lot about how desirable and free a country is by counting the number of people who are trying to get in or trying to get out. There is no country on the planet that has anything close to the number of people who are desperate to live in it than the United States of America. As we speak there are lines of people so long that the span multiple countries, people from every part of the world, risking their lives and all of their possessions just for a chance to live here.

As the saying goes, America is the worst place in the world to live... except for all the others.
