I thought that this was about the worst place to live in the U.S.

I would nominate most liberal run cities.

The biggest dumps in the nation are in the bright red states.

Just take a drive through the rootin' tootin' deep south, you would think you are in a 3rd world country.

RT is a pretty awful source. The US does fare badly on a number of metrics compared to its economic equals, but at least our unemployment isn't as godawful as Spain's or Greece's.

I aways love when people say "At least the US isn't as bad as (insert name of country here)". That pretty much says it all.

Look at 5 year cancer survival rates. We are number one. Yes, Americans are too fat due to being wealthy and physically inactive. The lower life expectancy means nothing. Why do hispanics in the US, who are poorer and have less access to healthcare than whites, outlive whites on average?

Does Lesotho have a problem with illegal immigrants? Does anyone plan on moving there?
