'If you think America is bad' is wholly unnecessary when you consider that socialized healthcare hardly exists, public education is a living corpse of severely underpaid teachers, mass shootings (I've been in one), mandatory cost of car ownership, and so many other fucked up things.

I'm not saying that Japan is a good place to live, because it has a myriad of it's own problems and I personally wouldn't want to live there. I just think we should give people some credit for the shit Americans put up with too.
