Very interesting especially at the bottom.

Home sweet home may be a relative concept, but home seems to be sweeter in some states than others. Also interesting is how the US fares in the global world when it comes to education and happiness, where it ranks average at best. Perhaps we should be saying "get America in the top ten again" rather than saying "make America great again. One step at a time.

If you compare the US internationally, it is very unfavorable on certain measures.

Healthcare costs vs outcomes, prison population, gun deaths, poverty, contribution to climate change, military spending.

On top of that, we've greatly contributed to tens of thousands of deaths in the Middle East through decades of interference for economic reasons.

The one thing that links all of these things is government, money and corruption by special interests.
