Method to madness: OK, I’ve been to all continents (except Antarctica), and at least 90 different countries (it’s hard to keep track with the name changes and all). I’ve lived (ie, existed on the local economy for more than 6 months at a time) in Europe (2 countries), south America (3 countries), Asia (1 very poor country) and N. America (besides the US). While I haven’t lived in Africa for more than 6 months at a stretch, I’ve spent almost 40 weeks working or visiting different parts of Africa, from the Sahel to Cape Town. Oh, and I visited the Mediterranean parts of Africa, and the Middle-east.
So, I guess I qualify to have an opinion? I hope so, because here it is:
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS THE BEST PLACE ON EARTH.
