How you deduce that I am envious baffles me. No country is perfect
and we've all got our problems and we are no different.

As for being impacted, what happens in the UK financially affects the US
and vice versa, even the world. London and New York are the two most
powerful financial centres in the world. Both our countries have strong
Nuclear weapons and we *work together*. We both have some of the best
security services in the world and we *work together*.

You are a massive country that does amazing things, the UK is basically
a tiny island that has always punched well above its weight. Between us
we've invented most of the amazing advanced things in the world, but
*not all*.


Those "British" inventions are actually Scottish. Even Jeremy Clarkson
admits this.

Eh!
Here's a list. it might take you quite a while to read the very long list.
