>40% of Americans can't even read text and over 60% are below 6th-grade level

US is a third world. Being an American is like a homeless guy trying to insult rich people. It just doesn't work at all. Americans can spam memes about "how they don't care about Europe" while world just sees a mixed, low iq, 5th grade level, obese fat, poor person who is extremely obsessed and butthurt about Europeans.

There's no better country than the US. WE can fix it once we get rid of the liberals.

Drug overdoses are caused by liberals, their culture and the chinks that want to destroy our workforce.

Hate crimes are great. You need more of them. Higher gun crimes are inevitable because many people own guns and statistics guarantee a few bad actors. Remember only 1% of the population is responsible for nearly all violent crimes. Property is the same.

Medical debt can be avoided. Accidents are uncommon unless you do reckless things. You can get a job for health insurance. Many companies include dental and vision coverage. It's fixable. We don't want people to rely on the government.

Wealth inequality is the direct consequence of capitalism. It's in every society.

Food insecurity can be fixed by getting a job in an affordable city, churches and food stamps.

Foreclosures and evictions are because of high rent and mortgage costs and higher and older population.

Credit card debt is because unlike Europe we use our credit cards for every transaction to boost or stabilize our credit scores and don't have enough money in our checking account to pay it back. It's a different system.

Our high incarceration rate has made this country a better place than the dangerous, soft and liberal Europe. Europe doesn't use the death penalty so saying death penalty costs are higher is unfair. I'm sure European drinking is way worse. You got us with processed foods and obesity and I can't argue against it. It's a sacrifice to change. Homelessness because we don't have any safety nets and zoning laws. Fixable but I think our vagrancy laws work just fine. Only old people pay for cable. Telecom isn't that expensive and is worth it for infinite WiFi and texts/calls which not all of Europe offers. Electricity is higher because we have 24/7 running AC while you die of heat waves. Juvenile incarceration is because of our immigrant population, particularly the black race. Our rule of law may favor the wealthy but at least it's not like eastern Europe with petty bribery. Natural disasters are because of geography, it's out of our control. We have more diversity than Europe combined, and stop putting statistics you don't support.
