Is it better to live in Europe or the USA?
which is better to live in, US or europe
There are many factors that affect the answer to this question. Let me tell you all briefly. If you are an unskilled worker or want to work in a job that does not require a degree and earn good money, my advice to you would be the USA. However, if you have a job that pays well and is respected in society. Or, if you have successfully graduated from an important university, it may make more sense to live in Europe. Even as a worker in the US, you are more likely to make good money if you work hard. Therefore, if you want to start from scratch and start your own business, the USA would make more sense. Because the USA would be an easier option to raise the funds necessary to start your business. As its name suggests, it is the land of opportunities.
Some developed European countries are clearly ahead of the USA in terms of factors affecting the quality of life such as security, social rights, human rights and fair income distribution, but if we look at Europe in general, we cannot see much difference. It should also not be forgotten that, unlike many countries in Europe, the USA culturally encompasses many different lifestyles within the borders of the country. For example, behavior that would be considered normal in Kansas may be viewed differently in jersey. When it comes to entertainment life, while the USA lives a lifestyle that gives more importance to entertainment, daily life in Europe may be a little more boring. However, this is not a bad thing, it is just a cultural difference.
When it comes to education, there are leading universities in both the USA and Europe. We can say that the USA has done a job on par with Europe so far, with the successful people it has trained in these universities and the technological and scientific developments guided by these people. If we consider it in terms of history and culture, we can say that Europe is much more powerful than the USA. Europe has a much more authentic lifestyle, with its architectural structures and some centuries-old traditions that are still preserved. However, it is also a fact that although US culture is relatively new, it has spread around the world very quickly with the contribution of technology.
And finally, let's talk about something that many people forget to mention. Entrepreneurial opportunities. An entrepreneur needs freedom in his field. The USA, where the state is responsible for justice and control but offers you freedom and opportunity to implement your personal ideas, prevails in this regard. You can feel safer in Europe. In the USA, you can dream bigger. However, the happiness and peace of an individual who goes to his daily job is at least as important as that of a business person.
A successful state is one that does not accept the victimization of another segment in order to satisfy a certain segment of society with the service it receives. Although both the USA and Europe are successful in this regard, poverty in Europe's leading countries is lower than in the USA.
So in short, I think the USA may be a good option for you if you do not live in one of the leading European countries such as Switzerland, the Scandinavian countries Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and so on. But remember, each individual's life expectations and goals are different. Unless you know yourself, you cannot decide which of these geographies is better for you to live in. It should not be forgotten that both sides have the highest living standards in the world. Whether you live in the USA or Europe, you are likely to live a better quality of life than most of the world. If you are at the stage of making such a decision, remember not to rush and consult people who have in-depth knowledge on the subject. I hope you liked my article.

I took my son and niece to Gori, a small town in Georgia where Joseph Stalin was born. They talked me into visiting the Stalin's Museum, the largest in the post-Soviet space. I had resisted going there because I just can't stand the monster and know enough about him, or so I thought.

Minister Told Armoured Vehicle Which Left Soldiers Vomiting Was ‘Safe’
A growing controversy has erupted after revelations that a government minister was assured an armoured military vehicle was “safe”, despite reports that soldiers using it later suffered severe nausea, dizziness, and vomiting. The incident has sparked serious questions about military oversight, equipment testing, and whether frontline troops are being adequately protected by those responsible for their safety. As details continue to emerge, the issue has become a flashpoint in debates over accountability within defence procurement and soldier welfare. What Happened Inside the Vehicle According to reports, the armoured vehicle was deployed during routine military operations and training exercises. Soon after extended use, multiple soldiers began experiencing intense physical reactions, including vomiting, headaches, and disorientation. Medical evaluations suggested that the symptoms were consistent with poor ventilation, exposure to fumes, or mechanical issues inside the vehicle’s sealed environment. In armoured vehicles designed to protect occupants from external threats, airflow and internal safety systems are critical—and failures can quickly become dangerous. Despite these warning signs, the vehicle had reportedly been cleared for use following assurances provided to senior officials. Ministerial Assurance Under Scrutiny At the heart of the controversy is the claim that a minister responsible for defence matters was told the vehicle posed no safety risk. This assurance reportedly influenced the decision to continue deployment without immediate suspension or further investigation. Critics argue that this raises troubling questions: Were safety reports properly reviewed? Were soldiers’ complaints taken seriously? Did bureaucratic pressure outweigh on-the-ground realities? Opposition figures and military advocates have called for transparency, demanding to know who approved the vehicle, what data was used to declare it safe, and whether warnings were ignored. The Human Cost for Soldiers For serving personnel, the issue goes beyond politics. Soldiers trust that the equipment they are issued has been thoroughly tested and meets strict safety standards. When that trust is shaken, morale and confidence suffer. Several affected soldiers reportedly required medical attention, and some expressed frustration that their symptoms were initially dismissed as minor or unrelated. Military families and veterans’ groups have voiced anger, saying that troops already accept enormous risks—and avoidable equipment failures should never be one of them. Procurement and Testing Concerns The incident has reignited long-standing concerns over defence procurement processes. Modern military vehicles are complex systems, often developed through private contractors and approved through layers of bureaucracy. Experts note that problems can arise when: Testing conditions do not reflect real-world use Feedback from soldiers is delayed or filtered Cost or deadlines take priority over safety If early warning signs were overlooked in this case, it could indicate a broader systemic issue rather than an isolated error. Official Response and Calls for Investigation Following public backlash, officials have stated that the issue is being reviewed and that soldier safety remains a top priority. Some authorities have pledged to examine ventilation systems, internal sensors, and maintenance records for the vehicle. However, critics argue that internal reviews are not enough. There are growing calls for an independent investigation to determine: Whether the “safe” assessment was accurate Who provided the assurance to the minister Whether protocols were followed Without clear answers, confidence in military leadership risks further erosion. A Broader Debate on Accountability This incident highlights a recurring tension in defence policy: the gap between decision-makers and those directly affected by their decisions. When assurances made at high levels conflict with lived experiences on the ground, accountability becomes essential. Transparency advocates argue that admitting mistakes is not a weakness—but failing to address them is. For many observers, the key question is not just whether the vehicle was unsafe, but how warnings were handled once problems emerged. Conclusion: Safety Should Never Be Assumed The controversy surrounding the armoured vehicle serves as a stark reminder that safety cannot be declared—it must be proven, continuously tested, and reassessed. Soldiers rely on trust: trust in their equipment, their leadership, and the systems designed to protect them. When that trust is compromised, restoring it requires honesty, accountability, and meaningful reform. As investigations unfold, the outcome will likely shape future defence decisions and determine whether lessons are truly learned—or repeated.

The Blue Ridge Stalker
Tom had left the Ford down the way, its spark plugs finally exhausted and no mechanics for a dozen miles back through the foothills to Strossburg. No matter, he had worn his boots—almost as if he planned for this to happen. The puzzle he sought to solve emanated from the woods clinging to the slopes above; the valley behind held no mysteries.
