There're pros and cons to live in every country. I'm French and I agree with your statistics, but don't believe everything's perfect in France. You haven't mentionned anything about salaries, unemployment and the 35h working week means low salary for the ones who have it, because, as an executive, i work 46h like you. You also haven't said we're a country of strikes, everywhere and everytime, so i wouldn't be so optimistic about the reliability of our public transport. Our prison population is low because we need more prisons...
Otherwise, it's true we've a very good health care system that we're proud of it, but it costs a lot!
But what i like in my country is the way of life that is devoted to pleasure. You talked about food for example.
To conclude, FRance isn't neither better nor worse than the USA, just different.

yes these facts are very true. i have been to france many timse to visit my grandparents, and every summer is a new experience for me. i love the lifestyle, culture, the people, everything. i actually am planning to move there soon, but if i change my mind, france is my top choice after retirement to live in.
