re: America ranked among worst countries to raise a family, study says

Literally every one of these studies basically says we arent socialist enough to rank high

It's almost like there's a movement underway to tear down our capitalist system that has produced more health, wealth, and prosperity than any system in the history of man and replace it with communism.

Almost.

Good.

Sounds like we should close the borders to prevent anyone from being forced to live life so horribly.

Yeah, they rank countries in terms of how much socialism they have, and the least socialist turn out low. America would rank near, or at, the top if they ranked by actual lifestyle. My oldest daughter is raising two children in England. She and her husband are the highest educated out of six couples comprised of my four kids and two others we sort of inherited. They have the lowest standard of living by a shite ton.

They live in about a 1400 square foot half of a double; they have no cars; and their neighborhood is about like south Kenner. He is a college professor, and she has a PHD and works for another university in public relations.

Their health care is free, and it sucks. They get oodles of time off work, but their pay is shite. In the US they would have a 4,000 sq foot home on a half acre in a swank subdivision, two luxury cars and a boat. Tell me how much better it is to raise kids there.
