  • "My country is a better country than most other countries."

    When asked if they agree with this statement, the fallowing scientific poll results occured in these countries:

    (source: my sociology book.... International Social Survey Program, 1995)

    Nation; Agree (%)

    Japan 84

    Australia 83

    United States 81

    New Zealand 78

    Canada 77

    Ireland 71

    Austria 69

    Philipines 59

    Bulgaria 58

    Norway 57

    Great Britain 56

    Sweden 48

    Netherlands 46

    Russia 42

    Poland 39

    Italy 37

    Spain 36

    Germany 36

    Latvia 32

    Hungary 27

    Slovakia 23

    Slovenia 22


    I am surprised by Sweden's rather low agreence, adn Irelands fairly high one...

    So how about you guys, do you agree or disagree that your country is better than most others?
    It would be nice if ya posted which country your from and what you voted, Id be interested in trying to see of there is any correlation between the 'Poly poll and this scientific worldwide poll.

      I agree. But since most countries are 3rd world countries, that doesn't say much.

          I agree, but my country is ruled by a banana.:sad:

              Kind of a pointless question these days... Global multinationals have the power, not pathetic national govts, be they constitutional democracies or dictatorships.

              The super rich have no ties to a country or a people.

                  Bulgarians like their country better than Norwegians! Filipinos are happier with their situation than Germans are! Russians are happier with their country than Spanish are!

                  Come on my Eurocom buddies, buck up! I'm sure your countries are all very nice, so show a little appreciation.

                    What I meant is that I live in the US.

                      "Better", by what standards?

                      No, question is poorly defined, could mean almost anything (would vote banana if it would exist as a poll option, as it usually does).

                      My country is America
                      Really? My country would be Eurasia, then.

                              I certainly would hope so... who would write such an answer seriously?
