America is the Bad Place

A phrase referencing the TV show 'The Good Place' and used when life in the United States isn't living up to the standards its people should expect. SPOILER The final episode of season one of The Good Place can be used as a metaphor for how those in the United States are often brought up being frequently told that they are in the greatest country in the world, but are then disappointed every time they discover something new that the U.S doesn't statistically do well in. Examples: - No other wealthy nation lets its people die of treatable illnesses, simply because they can't afford treatment. - The majority of other countries mandate employers to provide 20-40 paid days off a year. - Very few countries force students into crippling debt. - All but three countries have paid maternity leave.
