I live in America, and have been to the other places that you mention.\n\nThe US is the best place to live in terms of cost of living and quality of life with great amenities. France is ridiculously expensive, and I can think of few people living in a place like Manhattan or Los Angeles moving to Ireland. \n\nImran

I visted Texas, and I loved it.  People are so proud of their state.  You don't really find that pride in other states.  It's people are diverse, and the terrain is beautiful.  I wouldn't mind moving to Texas.

The only thing good about New York state would be New York City. You could also talk about Colleges in NY, like Syracuse and NYU.

A representative government has proven itself to be the best form of government.  No arguing that.  The US also has capitalism going for it.
