UK Vs USA - What country is better?

The reason why i believe that the UK is a better country than the USA is because: The UK is more free than America. We have free health care, we have freedom to have an abortion if we wish to (as many as you want), we have free contraception, free dental up until 18, we have free travel if you are in full time education, we have less poverty. America is full of poverty. On the outskirts of states like Washington is full of poverty and bad living conditions, and people living below the poverty line, and in other areas to, which are not near tourist attractions. America is not multicultural, people are living in ghettos, blacks are away from whites, whites are away blacks etc. The UK is more atheist; we don't have believers trying to convert everyone in city centers or door-to-door. We have very low crime and guns are banned; while in the USA guns are easy to get and are a constitutional right! Also there is so much junk food in the USA; here in the UK junk food is hard to find and hardly anyone eats it; the USA has so much obesity. But, what do YOU think?
--------------------
You are talking through the wrong orifice. We do not have "free" health care. It is paid for out of our taxes and often people cannot get the proper treatment/drugs because the NHS can't afford certain treatments. There is NOT free travel country wide. It is only some local authorities who give free local travel to schoolkids. You certainly cannot get a train from London to Brighton for free. There is a lot of poverty in the UK. Try wandering around areas of London, Manchester, Glasgow in the evening and count the number of homeless people. Multicultural - define that one. Again, if you were to visit any of the major cities you can find areas which are more or less exclusively one race or another and in some cases are more or less no-go areas for anyone of another race. Atheist - total rubbish. Just yesterday I had people at my door preaching and there are often (daily) people standing on the pavements handing out leaflets or shouting their religious thoughts through megaphones. UK is a majority christian country with around 70% of the population defining themselves as such. Hardly a majority atheist is it? Violent crime has been rising year on year with gun and knife crime leading the way. Handguns are banned not all guns. It is very very easy to get hold of illegal firearms if you want to. Junk food. FFS, are you blind? You live in Brighton which of course does not have any Mcdonalds, BurgerKings, Kebab shops, pizza shops or anything similar does it. "hardly anyone eats it". RUBBISH, why do you think there are so many overweight/obese people in the UK and why do you think the UK government is constantly banging on about it!!! What do I think? I think you are a stupid little girl who has absolutely no idea what goes on in their own country.
