The point of this line of questioning is that, given any country, it is possible to come up with ranking criteria that make it look like a POS or a wonder. The key is the ranking criteria.

It is also quite clear that a majority of UN members do not like the US; they are jealous of its economic success and feel constrained in their own actions by its military prowess. The fact that these nations were able to come up with criteria that ranked the US badly is not surprising.

If you prefer those countries, there are flights leaving the US every day; catch one. One of your freedoms as an American is that the government will not force you to stay here.
