And yet every single socialist, European country is behind the US in terms of their economic output.

So tired of the argument.

Not everything is measured in "economic output", not to mention that metric itself doesn't make any sense when comparing countries of vastly different size, population etc.

  • Yeah, it’s like forgetting that the point of money in life is living, rather than the money itself.

    • Life is not about checking off boxes on how much free stuff you can hypothetically get from the government either. That has tons of costs and risks just like everything else in life. It’s all relative.
