Illinois is incredibly dysfunctional. Our government is indefensible.
Very. As is the state I live in. EXTREMELY so. So, how is Montreal not "the immigrant's dream" yet these places in the US are? I get what you're saying to an extent, but I highly disagree with you.

California, which was cited as an immigrant's dream (though it's true many people dream of California), is hardly paradise. Yes, it's beautiful and has a climate that appeals to many. But its got huge budgetary crises that lead to serious problems with a whole range of critical public services, it is racially polarized and conflicted, and has problems with crime, illegal immigration, natural disasters like horrifying fires, floods, earthquakes.
And of course they have him as their federal-level president.
