> Are you sure you aren't talking about present day America

I'm just talking about the world I know. I don't live in America. I can't say whether it's better or worse.

Most of Europe at least is doing far better than the US on most of these metrics, through socialized systems.

Most of Europe is on the verge of bankruptcy as well. That shows how sustainable that is.

Yeah, Germany is doing really awful these days. /s
