I found an interesting commentary on the reality of the UK. To summarize it:They used to run half the planet, and now their median household income and productivity are lower than American states like Mississippi. You pay taxes higher than any time since WWII just to watch their legendary NHS totally rot away. People are literally pulling their own teeth out with pliers because they can't see a dentist, while bridges and public infrastructure crumble into dust.And what's their master plan? They shot themselves in the head with Brexit, locked themselves out of trade, and now they just cope by whining about immigrants while pretending they're still a superpower. London is just a giant money-laundering car wash for Russian oligarchs and foreign billionaires surrounded by a third-world wasteland.https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/2026/07/uk-productivity-economy-reform-party/687303/

You pay taxes higher than any time since WWII just to watch their legendary NHS totally rot away.bear in mind that we get a level of social care, healthcare, and safety from violent crime that is unheard of in america, so household income is not a good standard for quality of life

They never gloat about Brexit anymore. They have reached the same level of quiet despair as the French. Just less nonchalant. Germany next.
