I hate the typical German renunciation, self-loathing and denunciation. German people have a serious problem with their national pride and no one dares to speak up and point out the obvious problems in our society because one needs to fear to be pictured as an extremist or lunatic.

I am a Spanish student studying in Switzerland (lived here for 19 years, aka my whole life)

Spain:

- ETA
- Government not giving the right for the Basque/Catalonian people to choose their nationality
- unemployment
- lack of education
- bullfighting
-corruption
- GYPSIES
- Southern Spanish accent is equivalent to swiss german.
- The Spanish government allows Fascist groups to be able to present themselves to elections, doesn't allow Basque Left wing nationalists due to being associated with ETA. (not very fair imo)
- racist (worked in a hotel for internship, met lots of racists there -.-)

Switzerland
- Too fucking expensive (McDonalds menu costs 12 SFR (12$)
- Xenophobic
- Military service
- Girls are fugly.
- Trains are never late (for a person who runs late often, this fucking sucks :D)

Germany


- Two class society grows rapidly.

- Population decreases (ok, common problem of most industrial countries)

- Many immigrants have a hard time here. It's really a big problem which is leading to the missgouverment in the past 30-40 years. Foreign people were brought to Germany for working here. But only for some months or years. But instead of returning to their homecountry after their time is "over" here they stayed in G without having proper language skills or keeping their job. And now here's the thirth generation of many of these people with the same problems: no proper language, no motivation for education and most important: they'r somewhat isolated within their culture area. (note: t.sarrazin is a horrible idiot and those who agree with him even bigger ones)
At least it's not that bad like in France. But still...

- School system not being modern enough. But still okay. Grammar and secondary school at least. But here's also a two class society problem. On average rich ones can accomplish a good degree easier than less rich ones.

- Weather

- People who live from the state and loyal tax payers on unemployment benefits on purpose which is not very hard to accomplish. Lazy parasites...


Well, otherwise there are many good things, too.

- Very clean.

- Good infrastructure.

- Healthcare, also some two class society struggle but still fine.

- Politics compared to many other countries.

One of the biggest sports in the United States is Nascar.

Does it get much more embarrassing than that?

all the IT stuff here cost like twice more than in any other country in Europe and salaries are around 5-10 times smaller than any other country in Europe. All goverment ever does is throwing trash onto each other (not literaly), stealing money from budget and pretending that they are very busy solving all the shit they caused. We are also probably the only country in the world that increased taxes during the economic crisis, 25% of companies bankrupt, another 25% started hiding taxes and level of corruption increased significantly. Then we didn't collected enough money to the budget, you know what they did? They decided that we have to borrow shit ton of money from other countries with insane dividends, increase taxes even more, higher the prices of everything they're in control and cut stuff like pension etc by 20-70%... That's beyond ridiculous.

Welcome to Sport news!
99% football (soccer)
1% other sport.

oh and yeah, did i tell you we fucking suck at football? (yeah this year we made like a record)

Oh and the showbiz, which consists of 90% of the television, is just pathetic

And technology is obviously overpriced.

What?! I was in Vancouver for the summer and it was 70 and at most 80 high. We'd kill for that here in Texas!

Vancouver is not representative of Canada as a whole. It always stays temperate on the coasts.

We can get above 100 degrees (to use your illogical system of temperature measurement) in the summer in Southern Alberta.

Im from Canada + Quebec

So... i'll speak mostly of Quebec (French province in canada)

every quebecois is proud of being one... and to celebrate... drink beer and act stupid saying fuck the english even if they saved our ass several time in the past. Quebecois thinking quebec = better than all the canada mostly because we speak french and we got water and electricity... Frenchys fighting to keep the langage but changes every single rules of the dictionnary to make it easier to understand because everybody dont want to put to much effort in french.

Quebecois always thinking they are better than american when they are pretty much the same.

Btw: im a french quebecois... so its really not biased

The Bad:
- Traffic congestion in Sydney
- Quite a few racists (noobs)
- Football (soccer) coverage. Seriously noone else in the world cares about rugby league or AFL. The World Game FTW!
- Games and Tech is rather expensive here
- Pretty crappy interwebz (hopefully that will change in the next few years)
- Public Transport
- The Aussie Accent. AFAIK I don't really have an accent. But a strong Aussie accent kind of annoys me lol.
- Perhaps a tad too many immigrants

The Good:
- Healthcare
- Education
- Girls =D
- Weather
- Multicultural
- Lack of pollution
- The love of Sport

England has grown men who live around football even though they haven't played it for decades.
They're convinced they're part of a team by replacing their supported team name with "we".
e.g. "Man Utd are playing." tonight becomes "We're playing tonight."
