  • I think that you overextimate the american exceptionalism. In the xx century the europe was destroyed in the ww leaving the usa as the only state not touched by the wars. The rest of the world was lagging techlogicaly. Now the situation is different. Usa is a young country and it is not different from any other.

    I have seen the amount paid in property taxes in USA via Zillow and… It is HUGE. No surpries that rents are so high. Rent have to cover minimum taxes, maintenance and part of house value. These expenses set the minimum value of a rent. But why you have so high property taxes? Cause enterprieses and billionaires don’t pay taxes and cause they put their huge capitals also in real estate, raising the prices. The problem is that real estate is a right ( house ), but also an asset.





  • I don't know in america, but in europe, old school communists are much less hated than liberals by the right. The problem is mostly one here, mass immigration and, mostly, mena immigration. Old school communist are really good to seal borders ( for economic reasons, like massive devaluation of salaries ), see Fico in Slovakia , an old soviet communist. On the other hand you have woke left, like green party, that want open borders ( to suppress salaries ) like the liberals and they have an huge support by muslims ( that secretly hate them a lot )
