My country is better than your country

[Scaredgirl]

The purpose of this topic is to show why your country is the best.



I will start by giving this link:

>> NEWSWEEK's list of the world's best countries << (http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2010/08/15/interactive-infographic-of-the-worlds-best-countries.html)

Hmm.. I was planning on having big discussions about this, but seems like we could just as well end this topic here and accept the fact that Finland is the best country in the world.

Norway is best. End of discussion.

Heh, Romania is rank 39, better then I expected.
Seems like it's nice to live in Scandinavia.

Im sorry, but what economic dynamism in the united states?? Isnt it clear that their currency is about to default?? (not to even start on mentioning the euro if the people in greece vote yes to another useless bailout)

I will admit, germany has little economic change, but at least it has stayed a constant growth instead of this boom/bust cycle the united states has had, or the 9.1% unemployment... how does this make their quality of life near to germanys?

I dispute their findings! Germany is teh bests!

8th... I don't get how Higs and Rasta can be up there really...

This is why we need the country flags back on the forums SG!
Make it happen, pleeeeease!

Planking is banned here. The Philippines win.

Hmm, take a look at that nice linkey SG posted.

Now select the Netherlands and Finland for comparision: first thing to notice: Netherlands are placed high everywhere, while Finland is the top or somewhere in the middle, thus Netherlands don't have bad things (+ number 1)

Second thing, check the health tab in the comparision, Dutch people live a whole year longer: We don't only have upsides, but also a year more to enjoy it

Visit the Netherlands now for only € 193,- ... bla bla bla

@Thread Title: mine is not. :/

I heard Finland has the right to fast internet speeds as a law for everyone in the country.  In Canada we have crappy ISP's and they're overcharging for it, same with our cellular providers and banks.  I was gonna go downtown and join one of those Occupy Wall-Street protests but it's still mating season for Moose and it's not cold enough to build an igloo yet.


P.S. bring back Country Flags!

82nd?!  o.O

Can anyone lay claim to a lower ranking?
