Why wouldn’t I live in the USA?

There has always been the belief of a better life in America compared to what we can see in other different countries. There are a lot of factors that involve this point of view. We can talk about the economic power the US has created throughout History, or about the famous ideology of living in the country of freedom, where everything is beautiful and every person lives happy.

I don’t believe that, actually, I think Americans tend to live in such a manner that they suffer constantly for a lot of things. I have recently been in an American city, Saint Louis, and I found incredible that the city’s infrastructure is really big and really impressive but there’s not enough people to make it look as a powerful city. The first thing I thought was that maybe Americans were just lazy, but after a while being there I concluded that they’re not lazy, they’re boring. There was not a moment of the trip where streets felt crowded, or people walked to have some fun in town. The time where I saw more people reunited in the same place was when sports came in. Sports take a very important place in people’s priority lists in America, maybe that’s why it is such a good business.

That’s the American way of life in my point of view. Now, we can see a lot of differences between that way of life and the Mexican one. In Mexico, no matter what you do, you can’t get bored unless you stay home all the time. If you’re not watching soccer, you are hanging out with your friends, or going to parties, or socializing with new people. The thing is, in Mexico, the way of life is much more entertaining than in America. People there act all the same, as if they were some kind of strange robots which are connected to the same boring channel. Routine is the ideal world to describe it.

That’s why I wouldn’t be able to live in America. Such a constant routine would end up boring me to death and making me as fat as Americans are. I prefer a place where people don’t act as robots but as normal people, who are different in every way and act for different meanings. It is more challenging and gives a sense of humanity to life.
