    From my travels:

    1. The United States has the most affordable housing. While there are horror stories in places like the Bay Area other large urban centers like Tokyo, Singapore etc. also have incredibly high priced housing.

    2. If you have a good health insurance plan and an income above $50K or so you probably have a higher standard of living than almost any other country in the world. A downside of this is that labor protections in the United Sates are almost non-existent. Other countries do not allow workers to be fired so easily and virtually other country requires a hefty severance payment upon layoff. Disability payments, sick leave, etc. are also more generous in foreign countries.

    3. The lack of job security and the haphazard health care system make the United States a tougher place to work for the person making $12-14 an hour in a retail store, etc. Better mass transportation tends to help these lower income workers also.

    Well, shit, that set the record straight.

    BTW, there is a book, Kushner Inc., about to come out about with all kinds of allegations and negative things about Jared and Ivanka.

    When the PR response relies on the sleazeball, convicted felon dad writing an op ed portraying the family as victims, it may be best to build a bunker instead and try to ride it out quietly.

    Too bad POTUS succeeded in distracting from a real issue, that he helped inspire yet another mass shooting.

    One thing to add to that would be maternity leave. Up to three years in a certain Evil Empire and quite generous across most of Europe.

    She has zero integrity, so this makes sense.
