Britain vs the USA which is best?

[New haven america]

No country has full democracy. Hell, most people don't even know what full/true democracy is.

More democracy then, also i think it helps that all of our people have access to clean water, some thing that america dosn't.

No, not really.

The hell are you talking about? Flint? That's only one place in a country that's 40x's larger then the UK. I have clean drinking water, everyone I know has clean drinking water, people from across the country have clean drinking water. Where is this epidemic located?

[The Patriotic States]

You guys may have Bond and funny humor, but god dammit, I'm proud to be an American, through and through. We're the nation of Sunday BBQs, insane politics, friendly and patriotic citizens, guns, and hamburgers, and I love it.

Einstein and his science/theories was a large driving force for the creation of the atomic/nuclear bomb.

So technically speaking, Germany invented it.

China made the first actual bomb by the way if anyone's intereasted.

And fire works.

[Oceanias Elena Inge Dreyden]

I have heard this debate many times and wondered what you guys think. Personally as a British person I think Britain is better because we have a welfare state with free healthcare, and a larger history. Also we are speaking English.

I'm an American, but this is why I'm an anglophile and why I love the United Kingdom, which is why I think Europe in general is better
than the United Fascist States of America.

National Health Service.

[The first Galactic Republic]

It was a Norwegian scientist wasn't it?

One person is an entire nation state all of the sudden?

If anything Germany loses points because its government policies drove scientists like Einstein to America.

[Celibrae]

What is jello?

It is the American word for jelly, though who knows why you would put it in a salad. But then who would order sausage and jam?

a cunt.

[The Constitutional Republic of Freedonia]

America. Bigger economy, bigger military, more freedom. Only place we lose is in the accents. (Britain includes Scotland, after all)

I'll give you bigger economy (but for the lack of any real worker rights), bigger isn't always better, more freedom- my arse.

You are saying the place where you can get charged for waving a kitchen knife against a burglar, or have a veteran arrested and jailed for turning a firearm into the police after finding it, where the government can shut down the newspapers whenever it feels like it, and where you can actually get arrested for teaching your dog a dumb trick has more freedom?

Britain has vastly less freedom in bearing arms, and substantially less in freedom of the press, and freedom of speech-not too great in religious liberties either. How do they have more freedom than America?

[Aterria]

Honestly I don't care too much about "freedom". I just stay in line for the most part.

Right to bear arms is bullshit (admittedly it would be very difficult to implement in America, but still...). Why exactly do you need a gun in a country that normal policemen can't even carry guns. Dunblane, look it up- the reason that Britain is more sensible than the US.

[The Tirol Region]

You guys may have Bond and funny humor, but god dammit, I'm proud to be an American, through and through. We're the nation of Sunday BBQs, insane politics, friendly and patriotic citizens, guns, and hamburgers, and I love it.

Sunday BBQs are definitely Australian. Hamburgers, well Hamburg. Are guns really something to be proud of, statistically if you own a gun you are more likely to be shot.

I'll take dangerous freedom over nanny state nonsense every day.

Barbecues come from Native Americans, actually. The word "barbacoa" or something like that, coming from the tribes down in Florida and the Carribean. Hamburg style meat comes from Hamburg, yes, but the Hamburger itself is American.

As for guns, well, I like keeping my money and not getting robbed in the streets or stabbed to death *cough cough Glasgow*

I own more than 10 guns and I seem to be doing fine.

I'm still too young to own a gun...

Um excuse me? When did we get arrested for teaching dogs tricks, or handing in firearms.
And where did you get the ridiculous notion that the government can shut down all the newspapers? If they could they would have during the last scandal.

[Freefall11111]

I wouldn't live in the US. I would, and do, live in the UK.

Can everyone on both sides stop just making stuff up about all of Americas water being poisoned or brits being arrested for teaching dogs tricks please

Tons of people say pizza is Italian, even though it was invented in America.

So yes, it apparently does.

Pretty sure the dog thing isn't made up, wasn't a guy in Scotland arrested for teaching his dog how to do a Nazi salute?

Ahem.
Teaching dog trick.
Arrested for handing in gun.
Shutting down press.

Actually none of them are made up.

Yep.

No he was arrested for being anti-Semitic, the police weren't thinking,"oh we were going to release you but you trained your dog so bad luck".
