But I suppose you've only lived in the US for a short while. Go and spend some time there. Understand how their employees rights are geared. Try living there when you have an unexpected illness or injury or requre health care. The Uk is a bit fuddy-duddy for reason. We've were the US 150 years ago. The US will be us in 150 years time...

What's with the virulent anti-UK stuff? I know where you're coming from being an expat myself - equally though, don't forget where you're from too. What makes you employable, open, tolerant, educated and countless other things has a great deal to do with the country, culture and attitudes you've grown up in and with. I don't like the 'football, innit, wot?' culture you've so perfectly named. Nor do I like some of the political directions the UK may be moving in. However.... There are reasons why people across the non-Western world head straight for the UK whenever they can. Those reasons have a lot to do with the culture and country that have enabled the two of us to grow, learn, earn our own peaceful and lucrative living and choose our own paths in life. Jon, Jon, Jon!
