Thats not a valid comparison. There is not a mass-exodus from, say syria, to Saudi or UAE. Let me continue with the syria analogy. Sure there are people immigrating from syria to UAE. I highly doubt syria's number 2 source of income is money sent back from their relatives. That is the case in Mexico. There #2 source of income for the country, is money sent back from illegals in America.

I was born and live in the UAE , we pay zero taxes.Crime? Never heard of it. We got americans and britains with a not so unique educational backgrounds working here for loads of money and they're loving it, and they would more than love to put up an argument against your "greatest nation".

still doesn't explain why there isn't more canadian immigration, especially since they speak the same language as us unlike mexicans

like i've already stated before, its all opinion, "greatest" is an extremely broad term, you can pick over facts to defend either position on the subject
ex 1- just by going off crime and murder statistics you'd think we were the most savage country in the world
ex 2- just by going off literacy rates, you'd think we were one of the smartest countrys in the world
two statistics that while both true, seem to contradict each other, see what i'm getting at?
you can't paint every picture with the same brush

Well, Canada, and im sure all of Europe, basically the west, each believe there country is the best most likely. But ours actually is. ha. To the third world however, it is clear who is the best. When they flee there home country-of-shit they may go to england or other nations because they are closer geographically to those place. And the west in general is better then their peice of shit, so they go to the closet West. But, if you where to ask alot of people trying to flee there home countrywhere theyd most want to move to, they'd say America. We're known for freedom and opportunity.
ex 1- just by going off crime and murder statistics you'd think we were the most savage country in the world
That cant be true. There is no way we have the highest murder rate or worst 'murder statistics.' If i get the inclination ill look it up in a second, but that sounds wrong to me.
you can't paint every picture with the same brush
yeah i know. but some you can.

^i can respect that. where do you live? i kinda always assumed you lived in America. But yeah, alot of people hate us, but alot of people love us. The media hates us, even our own media hates America, so thats most likely why you have a bad impression.

Britain. And it's Half And Half Here, i Couldn't Say if America Was More Loved Or Hated. i Think More Brits Don't Like The US Now Since The Whole 9/11 War On Terror Shit. Our Last Prime Minister Was Basically Hopping On America's Dick.

My mom is the greatest in the world, my country is the greatest in the world.
It's all from your own perspective and experience.
If your country lets you pursue your own goals without dictatorship.
It's a great country IMO.
I mean we get to elect our own president, and then make rap songs that say "fuck him". We couldn't be to bad off.
