Denmark and Sweden have pretty high standard of living and are currently the most internet-advanced countries in the world (top 3).

Too bad the income tax is 40 to 51%.

Where would you guys honestly rate the USA today in 'best countries to live in?'

I'd put USA maybe top 15, maybe top 20.

On my list of "Countries i'd never want to live in".
That list is pretty long though so it's probably on a shared 20th place with a lot of other countries.

The unlimited sunlight of Sweden sounds like it would be to much for me. Snow + sun = way to bright.

You have it mixed up.

During autumn and winter you get like ~5-6 hours (not really sure how much you get down south) before it's pitch black, unless you live close to the Arctic Circle where you get like 2 hours and the sun is down by lunch time lol. The snow is like a gift from heaven because it helps to brighten it up so much. Sweden is also like 99% green areas so without snow it looks super dead and depressing with all the naked trees and bushes everywhere.

But you still get stupid people whining on snow and how they're wishing for a "green winter" after just having dark, cold, grey and rainy autumn months. No idea how these people are thinking.

During summer it's all reverse, it's dark during like midnight to 2-3 am unless you live up north where the sun really never goes down at all.

Hilariously, the US income taxes for the middle class is about the same

We get all the taxes, but none of the amazing perks. Though my internet is pretty dope.

Not really a hidden gem now is it? Switzerland and Austria are pretty popular locations.

A real gem is probably something like Slovenia.

Mandatory military training, lives in the mountains, marksmanship as a prized feature of their national army. Makes chocolate. Holds everyone's money in vaults guarded by goblins and dragons.

Switzerland, whats there not to love.

Danish people in my workplace had never met a Jewish person, then they asked why I complained so much (and with comedic effect)

I've never met someone who I knew was Jewish either. Staring at a black person on the street isn't rude here, it's educational.

We were fairly effecient at evacuating them during WW2 resulting in well, no jews left in denmark more or less.

I don't want to be a world traveler. I want to spend my life in one place enjoying chocolate and consuming media I personally chose. Fuck going places, it's never fun.
