Would you rather live in US in the 1980's or in Russia in 2010's?

The US, to be honest, from 1950 to 2000 the standard american family and way of life was at its peak, yes, they may have had some problems, but the pros outweighed the cons

How is that even a question?
The answer is so obvious

>the decade of Matthew Broderick almost causing nuclear war because of vidya gaems, Michael J. Fox travelling through time in a Delorean and Patrick Swayze kicking Soviet commie invaders out of Colorado
Boy, what a hard choice.
>>
>>56745291
US hands down

why are you even asking this
>>
>>56745291
Extreme crime rates in USA vs. low crime rates in USSR. Just that. And American racism if you're not European. So you don't lose anything if you're not in a big city in USA in 80s.

The technologies changed dramatically. I thought wouldn't want to live in the past due to that

>>56746053
Well then that implies we get to keep our current knowledge when we go to whichever choice, which makes the US 80s all the more worthwhile as you now know how the future will roll out and can plan accordingly to get rich and famous
>>
>>56745291
If we get the choice to go back and we don't know what we know currently, definitely the US.

This is true. Professional Americans out weight our convicted Americans.

The 80's was still like the golden age for the US so it's a terrible comparison.
A better comparison I'd propose is would you rather live in the US in 2016 or "at least a country that's not fucking Russia",
