What I mean is...I like Americans, I just don't like your government, that's all.

The main reasons I would not want to move to the States are:

1. terrible health care system that costs people way too much money
2. terrible political system, run by 2 phony parties
3. a strong government tendency toward authoritarianism
4. dangerous inner cities, high crime rate, corrupt police (in some states and municipalities)

The main things I like about the States are:

1. nice friendly people
2. beautiful geography
3. lots of interesting places to go and things to see
4. very interesting history and culture

I haven't visited the USA since 911 happened, and I know more than a few other people who say the same thing. Things have just gotten a bit too weird south of the (Canadian) border, so I've stayed away.
