Nope. I don't agree with all of the things we do, but hey, can't make everyone happy.

I'm planning on having a house in Israel within the future. I definitely wouldnt mind living in Canada, but it wouldnt work because of my line of work.

I'd like to live in China for a little while (3 weeks wasn't enough) but I like living in the US, never a dull moment.

Possibly France. The idea of eating a hearty lunch for an entire hour every day and discussing civics and philosophy in public appeals to me. In America, most people grab Chick Fila on the run on the way back to their desk, and would rather discuss Paris Hilton.

Yes, there are many countries I would like to live in but none that I would rather live in instead of where I currently abode. I love where I live.

Canada is my home and that will never change, the only other country I've been to was America and I really hated the people there (no offence to any Americans on this board because you guys are alright)

I love America. I love living here. However, I have always had an extreme fascination with Ireland and I've kind of barely considered moving there before. Obviously since I'm sixteen, I've never made any honest plans, but I can kind of see myself living there. Still, I don't think I could ever just move away from America for the rest of my life..

That was probably reflective of where you were. That's like me saying I hate Canada because they're all rowdy cowboy hicks (a la Calgary). Obviously, that's not true and I love Canada.

Nope. I been in several different countries, and it was always great to get home. I thought the US was a little screwed-up, but you need to travel a little, to see how messed-up a lot of the world really is !!!

Seriously. I always thought the US was a bad place to live but everywhere else sucks just as much or is worse. It's all relative. The only thing I think that pulls people from their home country are jobs and scenery.

Ex: I love Shanghai but the idea of paying 20k USD just to drive is messed up. I love London too but I didn't really like the guards with MP5's hanging around me in the airport and certain other locations.

I loved America growing up, but my year long experience in China and now my college education in Ireland has opened up my mind a lot more. The only place I really desire to go now is Germany.

It's easier to get into if you're an international student around a 3.3-3.5 GPA, especially if you have Irish heritage (my last name starts with O' if that helps), and yes, the night life is some of the best for your money.

I've been to Canada a few times and it seemed like it would be a pretty cool place to live. Kind of hard to judge off of a few week-long vacations though. I keepgetting the feeling that the minutes I move there they will turn out to be just as obnoxious as us. Anyway, I'm happy enough in the U.S.

No, I'm not a drifter, I'm a rooter. I like ithere in the United States. As long as I follow thelaws which are reasonable enough nobody **** with me. And they're fairly laid back withthe laws anyway. They only go gangbusters when there is money to be made. Via fines and revenue violations.

Sure the United States is uptight but only minors complain about that because itmostlyeffects them. Yes, foreigners like tohate the United States because... I don't know how to say someone has personalsecurity issues without offending.To me it's an affair of who's daddy can beat up who's or who has the cooler video game or Gi.Joe. But this is true everywhere. Everyone always thinks the grass is greener on everywhere else. I guess it's in human nature, because dream, we believe, we hope.

Let's face it, people take things for granted, especially U.S Citizens. Where else can you own everything when you don't have any money? Not owning a 2008ten foot plasma screen televion is a U.S citizens idea of poor.

I am content with America...for now.

I see corruption completely destroying this country.

Maybe somewhere like Australia...seems like a nice place.
