"Rich" is a misleading term. If you mean which one ranks highest in terms of human development and attainable lifestyle, it looks like this:\n\n1. Scandinavia (Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark)\n2. Australia and New Zealand\n3. Japan\n\nAnd I would like to live in all of them, but since language comes into the equation, and things like "will I get a visa" and "will I find a job", I would say Australia and New Zealand are probably most people's best bet.

Hatti, in the western hemisphere. Note that poor countries everywhere have commonality: dictatorships (rich leaders), living off handouts from the rich countries, while the subjects are squashed. We'd do better by dumping good books on these people than $s.

China.  They are funding a couple countries in South America

There was recently a survey of the best countries to live in in the world. The top few were norway, switzerland, australia, sweden, canada - the US was about 8th I believe.

Generally, low developing countries are poor ... not just the people, but the government itself. And for the government to meet its obligations, it often simply makes more money -- but this additional currency leads to the devaluation of the existing currency and leads to inflation.

Denmark.\nYou can take drugs legally, marry the same sex - one of the most liberal countries in the world - however, it has one of the toughest migration laws in the world.

Well a democracy of course. But more specifically, Norway. There is not a huge  gap between the people at the top and those at the bottom. They take care of their own. Everyone has health coverage, and if someone has a condition that requires staying in a warm climate the  government picks up the bill. 26.2% of American children live below the poverty level. In Norway it is less than 4%. The difference between what CEOs earn and what the average worker earns is nowhere near what it is in the US. Taxes are higher, but people don't seem to mind the trade off.

If the G7 countries are anything to go by then these countries belonging to the rich-country club would definitely be the 7 most developed countries in the world. The list will also be based on the level of industrialization, and the HDI (the human development index) a combined index of per capita GNI, adult literacy rate, infant mortality rate, life expectancy etc.\n\nHere is my list of 10 most developed countries in the world based on the level of industrialisation and the HDI index:\n\n1. USA\n2. United Kingdom\n3. Canada\n4. Japan\n5. France\n6. Germany\n7. Italy\n8. Norway - Iceland -Denmark - Sweden\n9. Netherlands - Belgium -Luxembourg\n10. Australia.\n\nThe reason that I group the Scandinavian countries is because their strength lies in their economies of scale derived from a collective population count, collective industrialisation and the freedom and ease of which the population intermingle within the group. Same goes with the Benelux countries. Australia has always had excellent HDI plus a high level of industrialisation.

In comparison to other countries in Europe, we do not pay as much as them.  They do offer more social programs in exchange for the higher taxes.

There are poor people everywhere, regardless of nationality.  In West Germany, 3.7% of the population receives welfare, and in East Germany, 2.7% does.  Compare this to the USA where (as of the last count in 2000) was only 2.4%.  Also, according to the BBC, since the recent economic recession in Japan, poverty has risen considerably.  The unemployment rate in Japan was at 4.3% as of 2005, but the actual poverty rate was unavailable on every site I checked.

The life is worse in their countries. They are paid less for the same and/or pay much more for the same. Lazy people do not go to US, I think. Everybody knows that no granted things there.
