    In other words. Highly capitalistic people who own the country manage to unify for a common goal agains countries where noone owns everything.

      ^ Describing capitalist countries

      Workers do own the means of production though under socialism through the state that prioritizes them over capitalists.

        Well, it doesn’t matter their intention. One person owns everything and can always change his mind, which would not be possible compared to other countries that are somewhat seen as capitalistic.

        I am unsure about america as america is a huge mess and is just the worst.

        Sucks when the gov doesnt like you and just decides to kick you out, because you dont own anything in “communistic” countries compared to “democratic” or highly capitalistic countries… wait, I dont think you own your own house either in america compared to EU countries. Additionally some EU countries give you high safety and home when you lose everything.

          USA has Eminent domain, so yes, neither the Chinese nor the Americans actually own their houses.

          But when one has an insanely high homelessness population, you really have to ask yourself which you would prefer.

            Both are high afaik.

            So the answer is neither. There are more countries that are far more superior.

            Its also stupid to question if I want a bad country-1 or bad country-2. Why do I need to decide between two of the worst countries? Why can’t I look for something far and obviously better? Just because they are the loudest or are looking like the complete opposite?

            Its like questioning if someone wants the red hell or the yellow hell. Why do I want to have a hell at all?

              China 89.68% home ownership

              China 2,579,000 homeless (0.18%)

              United States 65.9% home ownership

              United States 653,104 homeless (0.19%)
