Working in USA

[tooil]

In the US the living cost is insane. Ask yourself, are you willing to pay they insane rent required to live in a nice area?

Consider moving to china.

LOL!!!  Yeah nothing like those nice areas in China with their pollution, undrinkable water, insane traffic, and other sanitary issues. 

I think the condition you described is worse in Pakistan and India.

Living conditions around the world are very bad. People living in the US have a very high standard of living compared to the rest of the world however the cost of living is also much higher.

You would think so but that's often not the case.   .  To live an "American lifestyle" is cheaper in America than it is abroad.  One can hypothetically buy a McMansion in Neveda or Texas for under $500K but this same property would go for millions in any other country.  Much like contemporary condominiums is cheaper in America than it is in developing countries where such modern housing is in short supply and often is marketed to expats.

Cost of living is developing countries is only 'cheaper' if you're fine with bungalows that aren't serviced by utilities.  There are some exceptions like Thailand which seems to have a lot of first world styled amenities for cheap but Thailand is a big exception.

The American workforce numbers 139.4 million. This includes those working or actively seeking employment in the United States. In 2001 unemployment in the United States reached a 30-year low of 4.2 percent. In 1970, it was 3.9 percent, by 1980 it had risen to 7.5 percent, and it was 5.7 percent in 1990. Unemployment is higher among youths (age 18-24) than among the general population. In 2000, the youth unemployment rate was 8 percent. Unemployment is also higher among females with an average rate of 6 percent. Although the data is from a while back, I think there's not much difference now either. Hope this helps

From what I've heard the US employment situation is dependent heavily on the industry and location. What industry do you want to work in? What city or region do you want to live in? The oil and gas, pharma/life sciences, financial services, and tech industries are likely thriving. Manufacturing and service industry jobs are declining because they can be offshored or outsourced to countries that can do that labor for cheaper.

Don't listen to people who say, "it's worse than 2008". They likely work in a stagnant industry or in a region that would not be your primary market anyway.
