  1. I'm a Brit and from what I've seen over the last 15 years, the UK is falling behind in a lot of areas, mainly because of lack of funding in so many public services, and it wouldn't surprise me if that had an impact on Brexit, people usually lash out when things are getting worse. Trump is another example in the US, he didn't get voted in by chance, he got into power because a lot of Americans feel like they are being left behind, and it's ironic, because in both the US and UK, they like to brag about how well the economy and unemployment numbers are doing, but to the average person, that means nothing if they don't feel any of those benefits, I think that's what many European countries are doing much better on, wealth distribution, and that matters a lot more than many of the other stats.

  2. The problem with the US is that too much revolves around money and not quality of life. I've been hearing for 2 decades from the US that Europeans are falling behind, but when you look at many of the index in a lot of areas, European countries dominant them in so many areas like quality of life, in fact, the US seems to be falling further behind going on many of the measures that matter. What even more ironic is how many times I've heard of Americans that have moved to Europe, getting less money and are a lot happier for it, whereas I've heard many say it the other way around when moving to the US, you know something is messed up when you can be in a job that pays more and the quality of life ends up being worse.
