That is a very good question! They probably believe that this is the America from 50 years ago. Where you worked hard and could live the American Dream. This country is over run with so many problems at the present time that I'm afraid things will only get worse here.

Come to Canada - we have so MANY more career opportunities than they do in the US Sunbelt.

Because you are guaranteed life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. You are not guaranteed happiness, only the pursuit of it - let's get that straight right now. Many other nations allow for local and regional governments to have more of a controlling role in individual peoples lives, such as trying to start a business and requiring permission of the local government to do so (excluding professional licensing) or social class systems that supposedly don't exist.

Without being really supportive of the American government at all, it's easy to see - immigrants can become American pretty quickly. The children of immigrants can be as Chinese/Italian/Saudi/European, etc as they want, or they can be 100% American.
No other country affords as much integration as America. No other country has so few cultural considerations, either!

It has a great economy, and is considered one of the best places to go for business opportunities. It's relatively stable and reliable, and has a democracy.
As for the "land of the free" bit, PFFFT! Yeah right! Not anymoooore!

Are you kidding me? Hearing questions like these I often wonder what the future of this country is going to be.
The US is the land of the free and provides ANYONE with the opportunity to find a better life. We have the largest economy in the world and combine that with a free and open society and you have the recipe for success.
