    What Is The Greatest Country On Earth?

    This is something, ive been wondering for a while. What do you guys think?
    Personally i think Canada, Britain, and Australia are all very close.

    Based on stuff like.... general living, health care, education, history, industrial revolutions, Machinery ( cars ), empires, weather, leaders, democracy, politics, cultures, citizenship, milatarys, sport, food, freedom, accomidation...

    Anything you can think of..

    Explian why you think a country is great.

    Dont worry about people calling you patriotic.

    Edit: Some one change the title, ive typed 'country' wrong!

    Because you can always bribe the cops and get out of trouble, basically destroy anything without going to jail, Gas is only US $8 Cents per Gallon, Women are beautiful, the president is a smart guy...

    I'm just kidding guys..

    The day I visit every country on earth I'll give you my right answer Jim... But right now I'm gonna go ahead and say Canada and Switzerland.

    I miss my country, here's a pic of me (Many years ago) at a Venezuelan island called "La tortuga"

    This is where many ppl go wrong, I even heard ppl calling netherlands a 3rd world country before (lol). But they did some test, I dont know the exact results of it, but I know that Australia, Canada, The netherlands finland and one other were in top 5, USA could barely keep up into the top 10.
    I dont know 'much' about other countries as I havent been there yet :P. But I think many of u would be surprised when u see Holland. U cant bribe cops and stuff but u dont need to as it is hard to get in a lot of trouble, u almost get higher punishment for speeding then murder (kind of sucks). Also u can just buy weed here on like every streetcorner, yes legal (cant do that anywhere else). The weather is mostly shit here tho, 200 days of rain a year (same for britain). U are allowed to buy beer here when ur 16 (USA 21 UGH!). Things arent as cool as they used to be here like 5-10 years ago or I am getting old... but there's too much american influence here, and too many immigrants(no racist comment, but they make a mess of our country). I think there will be less and less cool countries in the future tho, more and more individualism, we're coming at these days that ppl even would sell their relatives for money if they could... me dont like it.

    I live in the US. I really like it here. I live in the midwest. I wish I had some pics to show you of my little town, it's just beautiful. Government? I really can't say it's like horrible like I hear people say, I don't see too many effects of it here.

    Australia... Melbourne's been voted the most liveable city in the world numerous times in a row now so that must be saying something. Australia has great people, great food, great lifestyle, great everything except great weather (Well, for Melbourne at least).
