You always whine about so many bad things in the US. And the US certainly has many bad things, but so do all the other countries.
A large part of the world's population would do anything to be able to go and live in the US. The US is, in my opinion, the best country in the world to live in. I'd love to have been born there. There is no perfect country, but the US is currently the one (or one of the ones, depending on your views; but you can't deny the US is way better than most of the countries in the world) that's the less far away from it.
