Please don't stir up nationalistic flamewar like this on HN.

[saubeidl]

The sentiment expressed is explicitly anti-nationalist.

[tomhow]

Yes, right, and our position is the same, whichever the direction of the attack.

I assume you are not living in Paris then. Here in Paris:

- housing is expensive

- it's not cardboard boxes, it's tents

- you'd be mugged/knifed rather than shot, agreed

- public transportation is good when not on strike. However, it's dirty and you might get robbed

- the world's most creative government when it comes to taxes

- it's still beautiful though…

I don't live in Paris. Generally, I don't love cities >2M inhabitants.

The parts of Paris I went to recently were quite nice, but of course, a tourists view is different from a locals.

I'd be surprised if it was anywhere near as bad as, say the SF tenderloin though.

>my net worth is easily in the seven figures. I ended up moving away for the above reasons.

Easy to high road others now, AFTER you made 7 figures in the country you now publicly despise, and wouldn't be able to where you're originally from.

Why try to emotionally pull the ladder?
