Every country suffers from poverty, especially the US, for without it there can be no 'middle class' nor 'rich'. Poverty never makes the news at home.
As for mass murder; US Police alone murdered over 55k ~1k (apologies for misremembering) civilians last year. My country? None and the Police do carry a side arm, along with pepper, electric and a baton. Selecting the side arm is never the first choice when faced with a disturbance or confrontation.
The people of Russia are more 'free' than those of the US. You believe otherwise simply because you are told 'bad man over there' and there is where you look, not home. Though, most people are awakening up to this deception. There is hope.
