Which "big countries" do you speak of? The ones in Europe that are smaller than a lot of states here? Or China, India and Russia?

Out of the countries you list, which are the most advanced within the paradigms of 21st century?

Reading: it's hard not to parse ridiculously

So India then? You cannot continue to compare this country and its issues with the other "big countries" of the world as the problems facing it are so very different. Our illegal population that is under the care of the federal government is larger than the population of some European nations, which if you haven't noticed are collapsing under their own very light weight.

Ah. First you use one definition of "big", then you switch to another here. Then you segue to attacking illegal aliens, then the Euopean financial crisis.

Very well done. But has nothing to do with what I posted about

Only because you never answer a question. It is fkn pointless to even try to converse with you.

Which countries even compare to what we are?

It's kind of ridiculous to have to explain to someone what a first world country is.

So then we are discussing countries that have zero similarities to ours, other than roads, a currency and government, OK. Landmass, population, natural resources (utilized or ignored) are not even part of the conversation. That makes sense, we should be able to run our country as "well" as one that has 20% of the population and 1/100 of the issues.
