What's your opinion "Life in the U.S. is much too easy?

Question

same as upon .

Answer 1

Innaccurate. It's not the yellow brick road it used to be.

Answer 2

Personally, this statement is incorrect, people have to work most of day time in  the morning until  late afternoon and then come back to their family. In contrast, Asian people have more leisure time hanging out with friends in the evening and they can take a long break at noon or take vacations.  Another reason is that America is quite expensive , people have to pay tax for all of the purchase or business, especially, this could be higher in big cities.  

Answer 3

Compared with some parts of the world, absolutely, although I would not say "too easy", just better than much of the world.  But America no longer has the highest standard of living in the world, I think Denmark or somewhere like that does now.

For the poor it would not be too easy, for the homeless, for people who were left homeless by Katrina 3 years ago, no.

But still we do have one of the highest standards of living in the world and for many, not all, one of the best educational systems, for others, not so good. It depends on who you are and where you are.

Answer 4

In the huge majority of cases, the saying is true.  We spend so much time whining and complaining about stuff that other people in the world would consider to be trivial and unnecessary.

The person above me is complaining that they have to work hard just to buy a house - when there are millions of people in the world that live in either shacks or in the street - and have to scavenge for food.  Ummm, let's try some objectivity here!!

We whine about the cost of gas for our personally owned cars when there are BILLIONS of people in the world that can't afford even a crappy car.

Yeah, life in the U.S. is much too easy.  It's just a shame more people don't realize this fact.

Answer 5

easy are you crazy! we have to work most of our life just for a house.
