Climate. It's one of the reasons behind this country having such high number's of people suffering with depression.

Other than that. Government, cost of living.

Extreme bureaucracy, taxes without decent public services, poor education system, slums, corruption and violence.

It's without a doubt corruption, there's a scandal every other day and the situation doesn't seem to be improving much. The bureaucaracy isn't much better, i think it scares away many foreign investors, sometimes it takes weeks to get done even simple things because of all the layers of inefficent bureaucracy

Some of the replies in this thread make me feel like in some countries, there are no real problems.

There simply aren't that many real problems in the United States. Seriously, I'm trying to be objective about it.

Maybe that's why some Americans like to complain - because they are bored of not having any serious problems in life that people in poor countries have to deal with on a daily basis.

I was referring to countries like UK, Ireland, and the Netherlands tbh.
