    I do whatever the fuck I want in the USA pretty much every day. It’s great.

    Do you have a Bill of Rights, including all the freedoms that ours has?

      I mean I can’t get fired on the spot at my work place. Don’t have to worry about a crazy neighbour shooting me. Don’t have to worry about healthcare or its costs. Nobody tells me what books I can and cannot read I can express whichever sexuality I was born with without fear of backlash Don’t have to worry if my kid will come back from school Protected by unions and the like from work bullshittery

      You are right though, there is no out dated piece of paper that doesn’t update with the times :( you got me.

          That’s the one thing that gets me about the system is the USA. You have health insurance from your employer that can just fire you if you get sick. Doesn’t make a lot of sense, even if they don’t the insurance company might just decide not to pay out, and even if they do you have to pay hundreds of dollars in premiums.

        I really don’t have to worry about any of those problems either, and I have all my needs met and everything is going well, and I have safety nets established in case they aren’t. It really is great here for me.

        You have very high taxes to pay for it all and some unions can hold the country hostage (rail strikes). Unemployment is higher because employers are slow to hire because it is so hard to fire anyone and you have less pressure to work.

        Nobody tells me what books I can and cannot read

        There is no such restriction here. Just because a few local small town libraries complain and get a lot of media attention you can still buy and read anything.

        I can express whichever sexuality I was born with

        It is protected legally here also.

      @RaoulDook @settoloki I can tell you Canada has a Charter of Rights and Freedoms that guarantees about the same right as America’s BoR. The difference is that americans are regularly told theirs is the greatest document, so many believe it without even knowing what other countries have.

        You don’t have the Right to Bear Arms, and we do. Thus your rights are inferior and America wins as usual.

          @RaoulDook Every independent freedom index I see rates Canada in the top ten, (or close) even the American-based ones, and the US lags another 10 or so slots below. These ratings literally mean there are 20 or more countries more free than the US.
          So, enjoy your indoctrination. I
          wonder why people want you to think you’re the most free.

          @RaoulDook You’re showing your American indoctrination even more. You’ve been told over and over and over that the right to bear arms is of utmost importance. Gun ownership in Canada is quite high and yet we don’t have the violence Americans have to endure every day.
