There is no all that violence like in the USA where police kill more citizens than terrorists do, lack of free medicine, lack of free education etc. The only thing I like about the States is your climate. Russia is mostly cold and winter in Moscow is very depressing (you can't see the sun for weeks - only low gray clouds above). On the other hand, we have no hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes here
