Duh. All you have to do is fly from New York to Copenhagen and back to understand how angry and stressed we are, as well as what kind of life would be possible if our nation put caring about everybody's quality of life above power and greed.

Visiting Denmark (and Finland, Sweden, Netherlands) is what it took to make me realize we're (USA) doing it wrong. Those places just feel... low stress, safe and normal.

Had to fly to Germany for 3 weeks to help with a product launch last year. If we'd been in the US we'd have been working 15 hour days to ensure we hit our launch date. But since we were in Dusseldorf everyone showed up at 9 and left precisely at 5.

Please don't post any more troll comments. Generic unsubstantive nationalistic or ideological comments are troll comments, whether or not you intend them to be.

Did you just blame immigrants for Americans being stressed out?

That wasn't the entirety of your message. Could you please explain what you meant by needing ethnic homogenization? If Americans are so busy helping out illegals, then doesn't that invalidate the premise that America is too diverse for people to care for each other?
