Most Europeans will never understand how bad US labor laws are

Just had a conversation with family in Germany and they could not fathom that even in middle class you barely get vacation days. They got all the way to 6 weeks a year and actual federal holidays. Add the whole insurance and now Covid boosters eventually turning to $100 a pop at minimum and they still refused to believe it. My state is one where we removed background checks on guns and more and more cops are now freaking out since now literally anyone can have a gun. And last neighbor casually reminded me in a single conversation (6 times) that he could shoot me at any given time. And they are still wondering why I want to move back to Germany. But they somehow insist thanks to the war in Ukraine the US is safer. Sorry, just needed to rant.
