By definition no, it can only be a first world country in the traditional sense.

We had a third world response to COVID-19 thanks to our incompetent leader, but no, our country is definitely first world.

Parts of it are. Rural Ohio springs to mind. Parts of Michigan, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama as well.

my opinion is that "third world country" is a dated term that shouldn't be used to describe developing or underdeveloped countries.

No, even a individual in solid class class is earning more money and has a higher standard of living then most other people in the world. And this isnt even factering in counting our insane welfare system that can bumps certain familys from a sub 30k QoL to a 60k one easily.

These days, the American dream is more apt to be realized in South America, in places such as Ecuador, Venezuela and Argentina, where incomes are actually more equal today than they are in the land of Horatio Alger. Whos the banana republic now?

We are getting there. State TV, Dictator, Military parades, hatred of races that we don't identify with, super shitty healthcare system, school shootings/gun problems and the inability to keep our country safe. Sounds like a failed state in the making to me.

By the actual defenition of what a 1st/3rd world country is, then no, the US is not a 3rd world country.

It's a fucking cesspool though.

I posted "The United States is a third world country" on reddit dot com slash arr slash politics and it got two thousand upvotes so it's obviously true.

21% is a surprisingly low amount of troll votes for CE.

No, but if you drive through certain parts of the country I can see why people would get that idea.

Troll votes. USA isn't perfect, but a 3rd world country? Someone would have to be impossibly sheltered from the realities of 3rd world countries to think the USA is that bad.
That's not why the US isn't a third world country

Wut. This post makes no sense.
A third world country is a country that didn't side with the US and NATO (the first world) or the USSR and Warsaw Pact (the second world) during the Cold War. The US is a first world country by definition and no degradation in the living quality of its citizens can make it anything else.
