I live at a 3rd world country and only go to usa to buy cheaper things and visit tourist attractions.

While the people is nice most of the times i would never consider moving there permanently.

The lack of decent healthcare, amount of fats, awful food, the taste of tap water are just a few reasons.

It’s because most tap water in the US is treated to remove pathogens. A different taste sure beats dysentery.

I disagree, not with that part, but with the source of the taste, I read somewhere that it is for the amount of minerals.

Fun fact, the second time I went to USA we were drinking tap water because we are used to that in my country, the last day we find this note in the drawer that said: Dont drink from the tap, the water comes from the pond in the complex this was in Orlando Florida.
