My reply was ambiguous. The point was that you seem to be suggesting the US is always right because it&#x27;s a nicer place to live, or that Russia is wrong because it is not such a nice place to live.<p>I lived in the West for a long time and returned with my children to eastern Europe. Sure it&#x27;s poorer and less developed and plagued with problems. There are many frustrating things, but to categorically suggest it is impossible to live there (or Russia I guess) would be an insult to everyone who does.<p>You&#x27;ve found your happiness in Europe and that&#x27;s great.
