Question

Is it possible to find nice things to say about France without the ensuing discussion rapidly evolving into a U!S!A! U!S!A! U!S!A! discussion of health-care systems and such?

No.

Why would there be any mention of the US, when the thread was about places one didn't or never had lived in and is presumably heavily represented by people who do or have lived in the US? Why is that surprising, or even interesting?
