"In 2019, the United States ranked 18th in the World Happiness Report and set a national record for misery."

You do know that is out of 156 countries, right? The USA is the first country on the list besides tiny Costa Rica and Israel that isn't just chuck full of white people. Blondes have more fun apparently. It's also the first country on the list that has a population of over 90 million, and of course it is over 300 million. When another land gets half as many Nobel Prizes as the USA, you let us know. In 2020 about 6,000 Americans renounced their citizenship, and in the midst of the pandemic with Trump as President over 600,000 new citizens were naturalized, which is 100 people coming to the USA for every one that leaves.

You can compare the present day USA to the Soviet Union when armed men show up at your cushy office to order you into a truck to go pick beets or move dirt for a hydroelectric dam. The difference between the two is that a corporation can't stick a gun in your face or put you in handcuffs, only the government can do that. If the government runs everything like the USSR, that means that you will be under the gun all the time.
