International What can the world learn from the US?

Biggest one imo is our military. Trump was right when he called out NATO. A lot of the world has been living under the umbrella of stability and security provided by America. Theyve gotten too comfortable expecting America to do their fighting. The invasion of the Ukraine was a wake up call for a lot of European countries.

I also refute the Norwegian prisons being better. I hate our industrial prison complex and think it needs massive reform. However, we do at least ensure that our murders and rapists are being punished. The Norwegian prisons are a tucking joke when it comes to people like that that deserve harsh punishment.
 
I think the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is something that all nations could learn from. The ADA completely transformed access for handicapped people. It's considered into infrastructure and construction at every level and we've seen enormous innovation in making things better for people who would otherwise have struggled.

From sloping curbs at cross walks to ramps and lifts accompanying our stairs. It's stuff we see and take for granted, but it prevents the handicapped from becoming second class citizens.

Introduced by a Democratic senator, signed by a Republican president and passed by unanimous vote in the house. This was beutiful, bipartisan, civil rights policy... And the US led the charge. Moreover we still do it better than most. There are still countries who haven't addopted any of these types of measures as a matter of national policy.

I would probably say preservation of natural wonders. The National Park System and rural living.

The Yellowstone, Grand Teton and Glacier national parks in Wyoming and Montana are jaw dropping, the greatest in the world. Unfortunately, Rural America (along with quality cropland) is being rapidly destroyed and eradicated in the name of development. It's why I'm so adamant and aggressive about preserving NoDak's culture, heritage and way of life, losing that would be fucking devastating as well as bad news for America's food security and supply. The second map can be summed up as more than 85% of the total US population living within the boundaries of the major metropolitan areas, tied to their amenities and economies.

I don’t think you get what I’m asking. These are all very broad examples which the US isn’t even the best in. Most of that exist in other western and developed countries. I mean how exactly is “low tax” gonna benefit other countries, for example Norway with high taxes but that does much better in many metrics.

So you need to be more specific. I you don’t want to, that’s okay because it’s more work but lets just leave it at that than.

I already explained lower taxes and regulations foster more entrepreneurship. Sorry, you don't grasp it.
 
Spent a good amount of time in Europe and Canada. There's things they do better, but it's only possible because they have better people. Merica's biggest problem is that it's full of shitheads for such a wealthy country. Maybe 1 in 4 people in the states are capable of getting up, going to work, and paying bills. That's not the case in places like Germany, Italy, Japan, Sweden etc. You're starting to see it more in Western Europe with their retarded immigration policies, but it's not like it is in the States. France is the only Country I've spent time in on the other side of the pond that seems like a bunch of lazy twats, and the people that suck aren't French.

Aisia and Latin America are almost completely shitholes outside of a few countries. Never been to Australia or any of the surrounding islands.

Yeah, that was a head scratcher, lol.

Americans absolutely need to eat better. I'm pretty sure US is the fasttest country by a large margin and now we have people trying to celebrate fatness as some sort of body positivity movement. It's harmful and whenever I see obese children I want to physically fight their parents.

United States of America is not even in the top ten in obesity rates.

I'm trying to think what parts of American society I'd want in the UK and I honestly can't think of anything.

I'd love the natural wonder of America though, but that's a different subject.

Dropped my daughter off at school yesterday and while they were waiting in line to go inside, I saw a little boy sitting down in line.

This kid was at least double his ideal bodyweight at 5 years old - Augustus Gloop sized.

Never did see the kid's parents, but I bet they are 400 lbs each and eat McDonald's 25/8/366.

To keep this related to the OP (TS is one of my favorite contrarian trolls) other countries can learn NOT to eat shitty food, get fat as fuck (size 22 anyone???) and then celebrate it and call it "healthy".

@So Fresh Basically people should strive not to look like your neighbour from Belgium, the health minister (lolololol) Maggie DeBlock, the booger eater.

Mostly what not to do. Be like them as little as possible and thrive.

I'd let other people choose that.

We have the care, it's whether people use it lol.
 
The #1 country in the world when it comes to producing lunatics that gun down children.

"American pride" is the historical epitome of a society's ignorance.

The entrepreneurial ecosystem is much more complex than that. Sure startup friendly tax policy helps and certain regulations and policies can either increase or diminish all kinds of economic activity, but those aren't necessarily the biggest factor.

For example the Cayman Islands effectively have a 0% tax rate and almost no regulations, but they don't come anywhere near the top of the Global Entrepreneurship Index scores. The US and Switzerland are at the top of that list and they have 21% and 14% tax rates and much greater regulatory challenges.

I would say other nations could learn from our entrepreneurial ecosystem as a whole. We have excellent access to capital, educational pipelines, labor resources, market access, etc... that are bigger challenges in other countries.
 
Protecting freedom and democracy throughout the world so that other countries can spend money on gourmet school lunches.
 
At the risk of giving TS some feeling of accomplishment he is very quickly becoming one of the worst war room posters. Dethroning Jacksavage or whatever his name is.

You just see the name and know its going to be dreadful nonsense

You clearly didn’t read the thread title or OP. Keep the whiny culture war comments for the transgender woke threads or something.

Then next time some conservative post don't bitch about the source link. You could have posted the question without him. Since you included it in the op don't bitch if people call it out.
 
Entrepreneurship and the importance of venture funding.

Next generation tech development and funding.
