I probably would differ with you there, don't see the appeal of the US myself, short term maybe, but long term nah. I've travelled much of the states over many years. It's much the same where ever you go, the EU 50 years from now if people didn't stop it.
'Have a nice day' Fooooook off.
One currency, they don't even know how to add tax into that currency until you get to the tills

tipping is not much better, the biggest pain in the arse ever. But you know what i hate about it, where ever you go it's much and much the same along with the language. Ask for a black coffee and someone will get offended. Simplicity and stupidity at it's finest and damn bloody boring. It's the place where they worshipped the Marlboro man until he died, then they got all precious about life, forgetting the fact that most of them are obese and have a bigger medical problem than a cig could ever give them with the all you can eat. Then they have Disney, the magical land of fantasy, about sums America up in a nutshell with fantasists like Trump in charge, a walking talking live Mickey Mouse. The big American cars have gone, apart from being rust buckets, the world turned eco friendly and flooded them with Japanese instead, you know that place they dropped the atom bomb on. Go to places like Virginia they want to talk about history, what fooking history? They love our Royal Family and think Diana is still alive (ok, i lied on that bit). They get some nice hot sunshine that's a positive, on the East coast, hot but expect a tropical storm at any moment, on the West coast also hot without the tropical bit but don't expect to drink any water there's a shortage. New York i hear someone shout.....oh pleeeease, the city that never sleeps, says it all really. Los Angeles the dustman deliver. Then the great south west....remember what i told you about that black coffee.
It's alright for a few weeks with a nice Villa and the kids, other than that forget it...'have a nice day.'
