U.S. Not Included in the Top 5 Countries of the World
The Glenn Beck Program ^ | March 8, 2017 | The Glenn Beck Program

Posted on 03/08/2017 10:17:29 PM PST by TBP

Congratulations, peoples of the United States of America, you’re living in the 7th best overall country in the world!

U.S. News, in partnership with Y&R’s BAV and Wharton, came out with its ranking of the best countries in the world, all wrapped up in a beautiful, dynamic website. It almost takes the sting out of dropping from 4th to 7th — almost.

“They rank it on categories they call adventure, citizenship, cultural influence, entrepreneurship, heritage, movers, open for business, power and quality of life,” Co-host Pat Gray said on The Glenn Beck Program.

Coming in at number one was Switzerland, because neutrality is always exciting.

“We’re number one in power. So, obviously the most powerful nation on earth,” Pat said.

There’s just one teensy problem with that.

“Thank you, but that’s evil to them,” Co-host Stu Burguiere added.

Better luck next year, U.S.A.

Readjust to account for those that can provide for an effective national defense. Otherwise this ranking is bullshit.

. . . could have excerpted the top 10, but I guess we’re all about satisfying the click pimps tonight.

Yep, we suck. If we deteriorate any further on this list nobody's going to want to come here.

Hmm...

Who gives a crap about anything posted on Beck’s website? He is a raving lunatic.

In other words...

Don't be so gloomy.
After all it's not that awful.
Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance.
In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce?

I know quite a few people who used to live in Switzerland and to a person they hated it and couldn’t wait to leave. If you aren’t born there you can’t appreciate how anal they are and how they consider it a national duty to turn in your neighbor or even your parents for things as mundane as hanging out your washing to dry on the wrong day.

Thanks anyway, but I was born and bred here. The USA will always be number one for me.

If Beck would move to another country the U.S. would move up a couple notches.

Glum Betch is almost as retarded and inane as is this ridiculous “List,” and whatever venal rump-suck losers voted in it. Screw ‘em all where they breathe, the festering snot-wads.

That’s right folks. The USA is a miserable place to be, so don’t even think about coming here, you’ll regret it. Especially since that Trump guy is the President and now the economy is going to make it very difficult to even find food to eat or Charmin to wipe butts with.
