That's just hilarious.

Property:
In EU we own property, i am not sure if i even want to know where you heard otherwise.

But let's consider land/housing as a property for a moment. Major problem in the world with housing is wealth inequality, meaning that wealth accumulates to few. Rest of the people who aren't rich will have trouble to buy anything, (no matter how hard they work), as rich famiies have pretty much already have acquired the best areas and control the pricing. They have no incentive to lower the prices, and prices go up faster then people can grow their wealth, so rest of the people rather rent.

Btw: Current administration is US is removing safeguards to prevent next housing crisis in there.

Weapons:
In Finland for example, roughly over 1/3th of the citizens owns a firearm. They say it's for self defence / hunting, but only small fraction of the people actually hunt anything.
But as they are country of rule and law, so they don't like to carry them. They pretty much trust on police, which basically never shoots anyone.

Freedom of speech:
What part of the world are we comparing EU citizens to exactly?

That report is from 2024, and considering what trump has said that he is planning to do with freedom of speech in USA, i might rank them heavily down. Hell, he tries to ban words used in UN official reports.

If it's platforms you speak about, then we get censored by saying cis-gender in twitter. And negative (non-violent) posts about removing trump from the office gets removed now. Meanwhile it's non-issue to wish that Ukrainians would die.

And i haven't even started about the usa becoming total authoritarian state, starting by trump sending people to El Salvador without due process, refusing to return one send in mistake & planning to send "home grown" US "criminals and terrorists" to El Salvador as well (Not his fans though, those he will pardon or hire).

That's just hilarious.
