Where would you rather live the US or Sweden

Maybe this will keep those other threads from closing.

I'm not leaving Canada.  But the US is my second choice.

I voted USA, Sweden is too cold...both weather wise and personality of the citizens wise.

Stupid thread but I can see the need for it after trying to wade through the other threads here this morning.

Some people need to grow thicker skin around here or start using the ignore feature.

Sweden seems like the game Candy Land, simple and cute, but will drive you nuts and you are at the mercy of the characters (government). The US is more like Settlers of Catan, work hard and reap the fruits (or grain, brick, lumber and ore lol) of your labor!

To me, Sweden reminds me of those little green ant farms.  They are taken care of and fed, but they really don’t have too many opportunities to grow or become more than a bitter old government fed Swede.

Why should one be obligated to ignore?

5. The government of Sweden controls your access to alcohol.
In the decade after the second world war, Sweden was really struggling with the problem of alcoholism. After trying several other methods of cracking down on this issue, the government decided on a policy that they called Systembolaget in 1955. This structure is the government-controlled alcohol store, and it is the only place you can purchase products that contain more than 3.5% alcohol.

Is this true?  If so - reason enough to not vote for Sweden!

Or you know, not just repeating the same stuff that isn't even remotely on topic over and over and over in multiple threads.  It's not hard.  I understand things go off topic from time to time, but when pointed out, how about not be a dick and keep doing it?

For thread integrity, and my sanity.

I’d like to visit Sweden, but I like living here even though our country can be incredibly fucked up at times.

This ain’t tango. It’s an Internet messageboard. Like his admitted sex life, it only takes one.

Ain't it the truth!

I think I'd like to try Saturn.  I'm guessing that's where Sun Ra is after visiting Earth for so many years.  I saw him and his band three times- all amazing experiences.

So Sweden is the worst of the Scandinavian countries, doesn't sound that great of a country.  Sucks to suck.
