Depends on the situation. Will I have access to a lot of money? If yes, some of those countries can be the best places to live...

I wonder how many people actually visit the country they selected?

why would you want to visit a country you don't want to live in? why would you want to test drive a daewoo aveo if you think it's total sh!t???


Why would you dislike the country so much without having a first hand account of what life was actually like there?

so do you dislike HIV? do you want to have a first hand account of what life was actually like being HIV + before you dislike it?


HIV is a well known disease and it's seriousness isn't questioned by anyone... Whereas countries that don't happen to be favoured by the American administration are portrayed very poorly through media. People like yourself tend to beleive what they are told rather than judging information for themselves and reaching their own conclusions.

nigeria's civil war is an on-going event, well-documented by the media all over the world, and so is north korea's stalin-style concentration camps. you should know iraq is one of the most dangerous place in the world right now.

it's not just american. i read CNN and BBC as well.

North Korea, hands down.

Not if your in the elite class, they have a high standard of living at least. There are a lot of countries with conditions much worse than North Korea.

What makes you think any other countries would be different.
The elite class will always have high standard of living everywhere you go.

I think when the lower classes are eating each other that's a good indication that you live in the worst country in the world.

The elite class in totalitarian authoritarian countries such as North Korea and the former Soviet Union was and is a very large class. Like 10-20% of the population. Look at countries like Mongolia and other poorer countries and the elite class is a much lower percent of the population.
