What would I dislike about living in the USA?

The problem is that you related your experiences to me, as if YOUR experiences were valid for talking about ME. Get it now?

Well, I'm an arrogant bastard.
I wanted to talk about ME, not YOU. Get it now?

Secondly, and more importantly, we follow the laws, for the most part. Especially traffic laws. If you try to bribe a cop here, you'll almost certainly be arrested. One Persian gentleman I knew didn't fully understand this, and he was very nearly sentenced.

Speaking of...I had an experience where a Persian(or Turkish maybe) guy asked me HOW MUCH MONEY I WANTED for one of my female friends!?!?!! He tried to BUY HER FROM ME!

However, property crime is lower here than in most of Europe. Except in the very worst areas, pickpockets are rare, and in many areas of the country, you can leave your windows and doors unlocked at night without worry.

This is true. I live in a decent size city and I rarely ever lock my doors.

Belamo, I've talked to people from all over the world.

There are two things you may not like about living in the US, one small, one more important.

First, we queue. (I think we get that from the Brits.) You may like this, or you may not, depending upon your personality.

Secondly, and more importantly, we follow the laws, for the most part. Especially traffic laws. If you try to bribe a cop here, you'll almost certainly be arrested. One Persian gentleman I knew didn't fully understand this, and he was very nearly sentenced.

Violent crime is worse here in the big cities, than it is in Europe. Discretion is advised.

Why do so many people find queuing up so special? besides, whenever we queue, it's not about the queuing, but about what is at the end.
About the law thing, you would need to remind of that some typical Spaniard who would never be discussing any of this, probably even less in [broken] English.
And yeah, I'm aware that the USA is a mixture of jungle and Konzentrationslager-Federation.
 
If you want to buy porn DVDs or "toys" by mail, you may find it can't be shipped to your address.

The rules vary from state to state. And even within the same state.

haha...what's a wrwrwrwrwrwrwr-American accent....that sounds funny...lol...
 
One thing you wouldn't like, belamo, is that if you have health problems and it's something serious, you need to be worried that you will lose your home, and everything else that you own, to pay for it. Even if you have insurance, you can still owe tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars.

I have what is "SUPPOSED TO BE" good health insurance, but they still only paid $1,000 toward the cost of my CT-Scan, and I am left owing nearly $8,000 for the rest of it! How much is a CT-Scan in spain? I will guess it's not more than €300 or €700 or something.

This nearly $8,000 is AFTER paying more than $7,000 per year for my insurance.

I haven't read the entire thread, so sorry if I'm duplicating anything about the complete runaway costs of health care in the USA. The USA has a good health care system, but you have to be extremely rich to be able to use it without being very badly injured by the costs you must pay out of your own monies. the health care system here is more than twice as expensive than ANY other nation on earth, even compared to some nations which are generally more expensive than the United States (e. g. France, Japan, etc.)

  • We queue because it's polite, Belamo. Getting in front of somebody is rude.
  • I have to remind you about the law thing, because people from Southern Europe and the Middle East do not follow the traffic laws. Failure to do so here in the US will get you punished.
  • I know this because I've listened to a lot of people, Belamo.

We queue because an order is needed in things, and in some the best way it shapes as a queue: that's all, no big deal.
Again, if I were a typical Spaniard we would have never exchanged messages... your post reminds me of some other's in this same thread :rolleyes:
 
Yeah I know about the health thing... we'd better draw a thick veil over that topic if we don't want to derail...
Again and again, thanks and thank you anyway.

It's mostly the Brits, here. It pains me to admit this because I have a lot of respect for the British and their culture.

But bless 'em, they're by far the worst complainers about the United States on the planet.

belamo: one other thing you may not like is that the news here is terribly biased—either extreme left or extreme right. You may have to go to a foreign source (I usually go to BBC, natch), to get an unbiased report of the news.

To answer your last question: there's probably nothing Americans would dislike about you. English author Colin Wilson has written that the United States has historically been more welcoming to immigrants than any other country in the World.

But there is one thing to note:

It used to be a breach of etiquette to speak foreign languages in mixed company, but times have changed. It's probably better not to speak it in rural areas, though.

Ever heard of globalization? do you think it's all basically or only about outsourcing?
As for the language etiquette and conflict, I have lived with that relating to Catalan and Spanish, so again... not new for me. Apart from that personal experience, I see it more as a question of common sense and taking other people into consideration and respecting them: what imay commonly called politeness.

What I dislike least about living in the USA is that even with the tumultuous

problems, the stupidity and even the blind hate that surfaces, Here is a country

of people thay have a 'mass' identity that supercedes ethnic.

Stupidity and blind hatred are quite well done here in Europe, I dessay!
