Due to the lack of functioning government, the mafia/corporations took over and nowadays the government is but a puppet. I send my thoughts and prayers to the Americans.
Anyone who has been to a developing country (in my case: the Philippines) vs USA will laugh at what USA citizens think of corruption.
You got Fucking assassinations paid for by Filipino government likely to cover up political rivals. Open corruption in the Police where you can just pay them to get out of parking tickets or even criminal acts. Etc etc.
Don’t be so much of a drama queen. USA is fine. There are entire countries of people trying to leave their country to enter USA to escape truly awful corruption issues. Phillipines is one corrupt example (especially if your family was politically on the wrong side of the Marcos family or whatever)

Better than some places? Sure I’ll grant you that.
Fine? Absolutely not.
Horrific levels of violence, 22% of the worlds prison population, massive drug abuse issues and a failing health care system.
I don’t know a single person from Australia who is remotely interested in immigrating to the US, while I know plenty of Americans keen to live here.
